Center for Creative Justice – CDM 2026 Nonprofit Tree Silent Auction Participant
Center for Creative Justice’s tree theme is: Hope in Every Sparkle: CCJ’s hope- and justice-themed tree uses a winter-inspired color palette of deep and icy blues, snowy white, glittering silver, and touches of crystal to symbolize hope, compassion, courage, determination, and the pursuit of justice. Meaningful statement ornaments add a personal touch that celebrates belonging, connection, and community, creating a tree that reflects CCJ’s commitment to hope and justice for all.
Why did our organization choose to participate in the CDM Nonprofit Tree Silent Auction?
- The Center for Creative Justice (CCJ) is excited to participate in the CDM Nonprofit Tree Silent Auction as a way to celebrate the holiday season, connect with our community, and introduce more people to our mission and the important work happening at CCJ! This event provides an opportunity to raise awareness of our impact while generating funds that directly support the individuals, families, and communities we serve. We are grateful to Christkindlmarket Des Moines for hosting this festive event and bringing Iowa nonprofits and the community together. We are excited to be a part of this year’s Christmas market and appreciate the opportunity to turn a holiday tradition into meaningful support for positive change—one life at a time.
How will the CDM Nonprofit Tree Silent Auction funds benefit our organization?
- Funds raised through the CDM Nonprofit Tree Silent Auction will provide valuable support for CCJ’s programs and services. Contributions will help us continue providing supervision and guidance to individuals, connecting them with tools, resources, and community supports to successfully navigate reentry, make lasting changes, build healthy, productive lives, and achieve rehabilitation. CCJ is committed to creating pathways for positive change by helping individuals take responsibility for their actions, make meaningful changes in their lives, successfully transition back into the community, and establish supportive relationships. Through probation supervision, reentry support, and connections to community partners, CCJ supports individuals in their efforts to change, reducing the risk of future victimization, enhancing public safety, and contributing to stronger, healthier communities.
