ICT’s Partners Realize its Importance
Without the support, alliances and funding of its community
partners ICT would not be able to provide its programming and
make the impact that it does. On behalf of our entire staff
and board, as well as all the children and families that ICT
works with, we thank our valued community partners.
Our corporate partners have identified the importance of ICT’s
programming. They have supported ICT financially, encouraged
their employees to volunteer and remained engaged in ICT and
its children.
Our agency partners work with the most at need children. Together
with ICT they collaborate to bring ICT programming to their
community centers, churches and facilities.
