We believe that communities thrive when every person has access to a good job – one that provides good pay, good benefits, life ladders, and a strong culture
Over our 20-year history, we have worked with hundreds of companies that have earned hundreds of millions in revenue. Since 1996 our companies have paid over $65 million in wages, created more than 5,000 jobs, and in 2015 every $1 donated to ICA Fund Good Jobs
yielded $11 in employee wealth.
Our Impact
Since 1996, we’ve worked with thousands of dynamic small businesses that have generated revenues of more than $1 billion and have created thousands of good jobs.
