Mission Statement
"To inspire hope and contribute to the well-being of the community by providing grassroots programs that serve the physical, educational, and health needs of individuals and families."
🧭
Our Strategy
Where we're headed and why — for every board member
The Vision
Become the premier family-strengthening nonprofit in Tampa Bay — and a model for what a lean, community-rooted 501(c)(3) can accomplish.
Geographic focus: Tampa Bay / Hillsborough County — with international aspirations as we grow.
Our Model — Two-Generation (Two-Gen)
We serve children and parents at the same time — across 5 program areas simultaneously. Most nonprofits serve one or the other. We serve the whole family.
"iCARE delivers food security, education, career development, health, and family strengthening to children and adults in the same household — creating lasting change at the family level."
This framing is our #1 competitive advantage with funders. Always lead with it.

Vote on all major decisions — compensation, dissolution require 4 of 5
Authorize the President as Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR) on every grant
Treasurer reviews + President signs the 990-N — your confirmation creates the public record
Attendance at meetings confirms quorum (3 of 5) — without quorum, no valid votes
