CROWDFUNDING: HELPING ICA SUCCEED WITH YOUR SUPPORT

6/7/2013

This year ICA has a new approach to fundraising. We have worked hard on creating programs that are self-sustaining; however most of our programs are still relatively young, and have a few years until they will be able to run without external support. In the mean time, the ICA's programming staff is taking charge of making sure each program is financially viable.
