“We are thrilled to be sponsoring Promises2Kids’ Guardian Scholars holiday party,” said IFG Co-founder David Fischer. “We know how important this program is for supporting foster youth in their pursuit of higher education, and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate this year’s cohort of students and the accomplishments of Promises2Kids and their donor community.”
To date, IFG has donated over one million dollars to children-focused charitable organizations operating in San Diego and California, including Just in Time for Foster Youth, the Challenged Athletes Foundation, the Mitchell Thorp Foundation, and Wayfinder Family Services.
