The Italian-American Cultural Center of Iowa is excited to announce that we have recently received a $25,000 Betterment Grant from Polk County! Thanks to this grant, we are able to further our mission by continuing down our path to a securing a new facility.

We are using this grant to purchase much needed appliances – an oven, refrigerator and freezer. New appliances are obviously something we’ve been wishing for, as these purchases will not only enable us to continue programs at our present facility, but they can be relocated when the time is here to move!

We appreciate the support of our Polk County Supervisors and take pride in knowing that they recognize our organization as a vital part in spreading cultural awareness in Des Moines and the State of Iowa. Thank You!
