Icon Village
Icon is creating a wonderful project on 31 acres of campus in the Northern California Sierras with dorms, commercial kitchen,
dinning room, 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, collages and vocational training courses. Our
program involves creating enthusiasm and ambition in these guests to pursue and earn a degree or training in their chosen
field. This residence provides rooms for over 200 youngsters of the thousands of rooms we need across the country. Icon's
plan provides for full support of these young guests while at the Village including computers and related expenses. This
program is for youth, from any area - homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, regardless of race or creed. No youngster will
be turned away.
