Grant Program
Youth Grant Program:
A large part of the Integrity: Arts & Culture Association mission is to encourage and support youth in their artistic endeavors. Toward this end, we have begun a grant program for those with financial need. We don't want a lack of funds to be the reason that they can't pursue their dreams and have access to an education in the arts. We also give special recognition awards to stellar youth who excel in their craft. If you (parent, guardian or teacher) know of a youth who deserves recognition or needs grant assistance with acting, dance, music or visual art classes, please contact us for more information. Funds are paid from IACA directly to the school for students.
Youth Mentoring Program:
Our youth mentoring program allows us to provide youth with free field trips to artistic and educational venues and free IACA programming. It is our goal to help equip our youth with with the knowledge and skills to become well rounded successful upstanding individuals. We focus on teaching integrity through Christian principles.
Send A Gift Of Love & Encouragement:
It means so much to youth that we believe in them enough to support them in their dreams. We have received the most beautiful appreciation letters from them. However, we can only continue providing funding with your support. If you believe the arts make a difference in the lives of youth, please help us support them today. Every donation counts, no matter how small. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization and contributions are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
At this time, each grant that we award is from $50 - $150 and youth may receive more than one grant for class(es), depending upon their need and the availability of funds. Funding is paid directly to the training/educational facility for the student. You may fund a full grant for a youth or send any partial amount toward a grant. You may also designate your funds to go specifically to our mentoring program. To give by credit card, send online through www.PayPal.com to donations@integrityaca.org . By mail send check/money order to: IACA, Attn: Grant Program (or Mentoring Program), P.O. Box 6491, Rock Island, IL 61204-6491. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of youth. Your support means more than you could ever know!
