| Future Programs and Projects |
Icon is currently in process of creating what we believe to be a wonderful project on 31 acres of campus
in the Northern California Sierras with dorms, commercial kitchen, dinning room, offices, recreation
building, ample study areas, it's own water system, and commercial size pool. Youngsters aging out of
the Foster Care System who would otherwise become homeless, as well as other homeless young
people aged about 18 to 24, will be invited to come and live at this beautiful property - an "Icon Village
Campus" - while continuing to pursue a higher education by means of on-line programs provided by
various universities as well as Jr. collages and vocational training courses. Our program involves
creating enthusiasm and ambition in these guests to pursue and earn a degree. A vocational training
program will be included. This residence provides rooms for upwards to 200 youngsters of the
thousands of rooms we need across the country. Icon's plan provides for full support of these young
guests including lap top computers and tuition fees for their online university courses. This program is
for youth, from any area if homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, regardless of race or creed.

| Icon plans with the help of Partners, grants and donations to establish ICON CAMPUSES across the U.S. The Foundation's over-all program includes development of income producing activity on all or most campus properties as a means to guarantee future support of the campus program. Residences such as these are desperately needed by our youth. |
| Every day we lose in providing homes and support for our children, more lives slip through the cracks of bureaucracy and more futures are lost "Our Children Are The Future of Our Country and the World." |
IN DEVELOPMENT STAGE

suggestions regarding occasional every day problems
any furry friend might experience.
