Our Story

ICO, Inc. provides resources to the community though organized delivery of good and services to improve and sustain livelihoods of those in need.

In 2014, a group of high school classmates agreed to feed the homeless population near Pacific Gardens on 14th and Canal Street in Chicago and through the Chicagoland area. As the weather changed and it began to get cold, items to keep the population warm, i.e., socks, hoodies, undershirts, coats, hats, gloves, etc., were also distributed. These efforts of providing a hot meal and snack occurred once every other month.

In 2022, ICO, Inc. expanded its reach to impact the community by donating funds to assist 8th grade students with their graduation fees. While our mission and reach was small initially, we have continued every year to build on our success and help those in need in the community.
