Inner City Youth Charitable Foundation | ICYCF

Our Mission

The mission of the Inner City Youth Charitable Foundation (ICYCF) is to motivate and support under-served and economically disadvantaged Chicago youth to prepare for and obtain higher education.  

Our Vision

Our vision is to nurture the small seeds of hope in the youth we serve. Many of them only have a rough sense of the opportunities that exist to help them reach their potential. Others have exciting, detailed dreams they are working towards, but often lack the financial resources to realize them.

By linking these youth with positive role models, educating them on the available resources and opportunities, and providing them access to college scholarships, we believe that these seeds of hope can grow, flourish, and lead to an abundant life.
