About Us

Our program sees a community of youth and adolescents defying the odds by unlocking and unleashing their passion, creativity, intellectualism and their voice. 

The iCare Project helps youth and adolescents become their best selves through the power of community, education, recreation, and mentorship. Our holistic program brings out the best in every child through empowerment, encouragement, and exposure. After working in the educational system since 2012, our founder, Danesha Roper witnessed how some students frequently fell by the wayside while others advanced in their scholastic endeavors. This would sometimes contribute to behavioral issues, broken spirits, and a sense of shame. The iCare Project exists to help those children who are overlooked by providing them with tutoring services, mental health coaching, mentorship, workforce development and programming that caters to their desires and young minds. We exist because youth deserve the opportunity to maximize their potential in safe places and around people who will strategize ways to work alongside each individual so that their dreams can become reality. We care.
