ICH: Home, Help & Hope

You have the power to transform the lives of Chicagos homeless women and children. By supporting Interfaith Council for the Homeless (ICH) successful programs you provide families with both a permanent home and the tools they need to rebuild their lives. Join us in creating a community of achievement. By supporting our vision you can change the lives of generations to come.

ICH residents are determined women who, finding themselves homeless and broken, made the difficult decision to examine their lives and forge a new path. By surrounding these women with a framework of support and holding them accountable for their progress, ICH gives them the best chance for a new life.

One of the hidden tragedies of homelessness is that families shuttle from shelter to shelter with their children constantly changing schools. We break the cycle of homelessness by creating a stable family environment where both women and their children can thrive. With a supportive community, a school to call their own and a chance for lasting friendships, our children flourish. Seventy-five percent of ICH children are working at grade level and twelve percent are on the honor roll.

ICH fosters an atmosphere of achievement where goals are set, met and celebrated. We are a vibrant and cohesive organization where everyone works together to help the women overcome obstacles. We have a proven record of success. Eighty-four percent of ICH alumnae families are self-sufficient and paying full market rent.

Your donation helps Chicagos homeless women and children reclaim their lives. Join us in breaking the generational cycle of homelessness by transforming the lives of those in need.
