ICS Academic and Cultural Award

I was one of the two recipients of the ICS Academic and Cultural Award. I have been working hard to learn more about my Indian roots since I was a child, and to give back to my local community as gratitude for all that I have. It is a true honor to be recognized for my work by such an amazing organization that has truly made a mark on the way young people celebrate diversity and interacts with their community. I would also like to thank you for your generous scholarship of $250, which I plan on using to finance a new laptop to aid me in my schoolwork.

Annual Event Soundtracks

Thank you to this amazing amazing ICS team for such a perfectly organized show!!! No glitches, everything went so smoothly!! Felt like we pay so much for celebrity concerts and even those are not as organized as this was!! From arranging pizza ,water etc for hundreds of kids before the show, to their pics, organized ticketing for seats , no delay, awesome backstage lighting to sound system for tracks, then dinner with so many food stations to avoid long lines, the drum beats entertainment from little girl Sapna Stanley, to the most amazing YMCA child care so adults can watch the second outstanding show from hilarious Rajiv Satyal!! Can’t forget MC Dhawal Sheth, he was superb and kept the audience interested throughout. Every little detail was so well planned!! Outstanding!!!! THANK YOU ICS!! I haven’t seen this much perfection when I have paid so much for celebrity concerts! You ALL are remarkable!!!!

How important ICS has been in my family’s life

Speaking as a Ex-Committee member from few years ago, where my kids are now ICS Alumni. This week, I was reminded again of how important ICS has been in my family’s life. The connections you make over the years is crucial. The groups of kids and their parents become your extended family. I wanted to say a personal thank you to ICS and show my appreciation, that today, even after leaving the ICS committee, I have so many connections and many continued friendships in my life. Truly Blessed 🙏. Thank you, ICS.

Great Way of Exposure

ICS is a great way to expose our American born kids to a bit of Indian flavor. It introduced my 6 year old twins to other kids that like and dance to the same songs as they do.It gave them an opportunity to dance on stage for the talent show which got them ready to participate in the annual ICS show.
