ICA Charitable Donations for 2002

In 2002, the ICA concentrated on providing funds to assist the Portland Parks Bureau in creating a kid-friendly splash pool for Irving Park, a city park adjacent to the Irvington Grade School.  While the contribution from the Tour was substantial, additional funds were needed and have been accumulated since.  As of January, 2004, nearly $50,000 had been assembled by the ICA for this purpose.  A total of $11,000 has come from Home Tour funds (most from the 2002 Tour) with the balance from private donations, and matching funds.

While a substantial amount of money, the $50,000 amount was below the most recent contractors' estimates. Work is under way to determine how to bring this project to completion given the available resources.
