The India Community Center is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. ICC West Valley is a chapter under the India Community Center.
ICC West Valley, like ICC, was created on the promise of the power of community to provide strength in unity in this, our adopted country. ICC West Valley serves the cities of Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Saratoga, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, and neighboring areas all without regard to region, religion, or politics. We aim to Unite, Serve, and Celebrate our wonderful community.
Our service projects are helping to transform lives. Our Youth empowerment program is providing a safe and supportive environment to Indian American youth and their parents to better communicate with each other. We aim to increase understanding on either side give them the confidence to speak about topics considered taboo in our culture and reduce the emotional stress that many youth and parents feel during the intense high school years. Additionally, we are building a platform for youth to delve deeper into their rich cultural heritage by hosting performances by Indian classical local and International artists.
Our Women Empowerment program will help women emotionally to reach their full potential. We will help raise awareness about resources such as Desi Rainbow Parents, Maitri, and Mann Mukti (mental health – kids helping kids) and enable them to become change-makers in the community.
Our subsidized Senior program is a long-running forum for our seniors to come together to celebrate all the festivals, landmark events, and each other to reduce the loneliness they feel and add zest to their lives. ICC West Valley has been a “home away from home” for our seniors for many years. Our programs enable our seniors to follow their passion for singing, dancing, acting, writing, public speaking, doing yoga and meditation, and other activities which increase the enjoyment of their golden years immensely.
