      Curry Stone Foundation - Home

      The Curry Stone Foundation (CSF) is the brainchild of architect, urban planner and developer Clifford Curry, FAIA, and the historical archeologist Dr. Delight Stone, RPA. It was inspired by a shared conviction that design thinking and design actions can—and should, serve those wishing to contribute to community vitality and human dignity. Most of all, we believe that design should be available to those most in need.

      REQUESTS FOR FUNDING

      We are struggling to comprehend the magnitude and horror during this period of Covid-19.

      The deaths, the illnesses, millions unemployed, millions in quarantine, borders closed and the disruption of normalcy.

      Curry Stone Foundation is receiving numerous unsolicited requests for support in light of this crisis. Many of these have significant merit, and we understand the need is great.

      Prior the Pandemic, our budget for 2020 and 2021 was committed to projects still in process, in India and elsewhere. Now, as a direct result of the crisis, we anticipate that these will need supplemental funds to reach completion. As these projects impact fragile, marginalized populations, we need to reserve emergency funds for that purpose.

      For these reasons, we will not be able to assist financially with any immediate requests for funds.

      Appreciatively,

      Curry Stone Foundation
