The Society for Creative Anachronism is a not-for-profit charity. The populace of Caid frequently contribute to charitable causes both within the Society and in the modern community we live within.

Often, challenges are issued to the populace or to groups within the Society to contribute to a certain cause over a period of time, with a prize or praise offered to the greatest contributor.

Yule celebrations and other Events often include a toy drive or collection box benefiting Toys for Tots or other local charities.

Another way the SCA can "give back to the community" is by running demonstrations of Society activities for school groups, festivals, etc. These events mesh especially well with the Society's educational ideals.
