\"\"Sinclair\u2019s \u201cGiving Campaign for Culture Works\u201d is a campus wide charity with the purpose of supporting the arts and culture in the Dayton area. Culture Works has a belief of creating and keeping a community of arts for it’s citizens to appreciate, and since its 1974 beginnings, it has provided support to be the Miami Valley\u2019s main catalyst in cultural services.
\n
\nThough Culture Works receives charity from local businesses such as Uno\u2019s Chicago Grill and Salar fashion boutique, the charity\u2019s biggest contributions have come from Sinclair Community College. <\/p>\n

\u201cCulture Works\u2019 Giving Campaign consists of a Sinclair subcommittee that uses interoffice mailing campaigns and advertisements all over campus,\u201d said Kyle Fisk, a professor of Design.
\nHe, and design professor, Amanda M. Romero, are the co-chairs of the Culture Works employee campaign. The two are also in charge of the on-campus charity event, and Fisk wants to let people know that, \u201cthis charity is not just limited to faculty and professional staff. Anyone, from students to alumni can contribute.\u201d
\nThese contributions benefit thousands of lives in the Dayton area because they provide a critical support to local and cultural organizations. Any amount is fine to donate, but anyone who donates $85 or more will receive a passport. The passport gives the recipient discounts to Culture Works sponsored events and businesses.
\nThe money donated has contributed to events such as the Leonard P. Martin Memorial Scholarships. This award is for college students of the Dayton region, who are pursuing a degree in arts or participating or demonstrating patronage for the arts.
\nSince its start in 1994,Culture Works was able to grant over $342,592 to 183 students in the area.
\n\u201cThis is important to Sinclair because the charity has been a part of our campus for over the past 20 years,\u201d Fisk said. \u201cOverall, our campaign, along with these organizations, tends to touch the lives of everyone in the Miami Valley.\u201d When asked what Culture Works does for the Montgomery County, Fisk said, \u201cI think the culture and art is what makes Dayton so unique.\u201d
