CRVF History
What is Crystal Run Village Foundation?
Crystal Run Village Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that raises, manages, and distributes funds for the purpose of improving the quality of life for adults and children with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.
As the fundraising entity associated with the human services agency Crystal Run Village, Inc., the Foundation’s funds augment government benefits for which the individual may be eligible so that the individual can live a more complete life.
In the past many of the adults receiving support services lived in institutions and the Foundation has supported programs to provide them with community-based housing and opportunities for learning, independence and greater community inclusion and contribution. Today children with disabilities live at home with their families and attend school, however there are many unmet needs. The Foundation considers these needs on an individualized basis so that an individual’s future can be as successful as possible.
