Service Projects
Serve Where It’s Needed Most
Service projects at ICI provide meaningful ways to support our ministry through hands-on work that meets practical needs. These projects help maintain our facilities, prepare spaces for programs, and support special events and seasonal initiatives. While service projects may look different from ongoing volunteering, they play a vital role in creating safe, welcoming environments where ministry can thrive.
Service projects take place throughout ICI’s program sites and partner spaces in Chicago and Cicero, meeting real needs in the communities we serve.
Service Project Opportunities
Service projects are typically one-time or short-term opportunities that support ICI’s ministry through practical, behind-the-scenes work. These opportunities allow individuals and groups to serve children, youth, and families by helping prepare spaces, support programs, and meet real, everyday needs within our ministry.
Individual Service Projects
Group Service Projects
Skilled Service Projects (as available)
Availability varies by season and ministry needs across our Chicago and Cicero program locations. Our team will work with you to identify current projects that best fit your availability and skills.
Supporting Ministry Behind the Scenes
Many of the moments that shape students’ lives are made possible by practical service that often goes unseen. Service projects create the spaces, support, and structure that allow relationships and ministry to flourish.
Have a Skill or Team to Offer?
We regularly partner with individuals, church groups, businesses, and teams serving across the Chicagoland area. If you’re interested in serving through a service project—or have a specific skill, trade, or group in mind—we’d love to hear from you. Our team will help identify current service needs and determine how your availability and abilities can best support our ministry.
