Giving
Crosscurrents International Institute is a tax-exempt organization, based in Ohio, and serving a national and international constituency. It was started in the mid-1980’s as an outgrowth of the Charles F. Kettering Foundation, a major philanthropic foundation. Crosscurrents is now completely independent of the Kettering Foundation. Crosscurrents is small in size but we are able to accomplish much with our limited resources.
Personal checks are welcome – please send to Crosscurrents International Institute, 7122 Hardin Wapak Rd, Sidney, OH 45365
If you are interested in donating stocks, please contact us and we will give you detailed instructions.

Connecting for a Win
We like to develop personal connections with donors. Our goal is to create “win-win” conditions for both donors and Crosscurrents. We seek to connect with donors who have a passion for one of our programs but lack the networks and expertise to make it happen. On the other hand, Crosscurrents has the networks and expertise but lacks the resources to make it happen. By “marrying” the interests and resources of the donors with the expertise of Crosscurrents, we create a win-win situation for everyone. Let’s talk!
95% Directly to Programs
The future of Crosscurrents depends on support and gifts from individuals and organizations that share the same values, of moving forward toward a more peaceful world. Contributions are carefully used. Crosscurrents does not pay high salaries or rent expensive office space. Over 95% of all contributions go direct to support programs. Crosscurrents stays on top of its overseas programs and is careful to monitor where and how money is spent. There is no money from Crosscurrents that gets ‘lost’ once it arrives at programs in other countries!
