About IL Cares Foundation
Established in 2014, the Island Luck Cares Foundation (ILC), The IL Cares Foundation (ILC) has now become the sole source of Island Luck’s charitable works and the continued goals and efforts of Island Luck will be realized through the successful economic empowerment programs of the ILC.
Island Luck has consistently aimed to empower Bahamians through countless contributions and dedicated community initiatives. It is our main focus and goal to directly affect those with the greatest needs. This includes outreach and effective assistance in the areas of poverty, health care, education, and business entrepreneurship and ownership.
Through the foundation we aim to continue our ongoing initiatives with the goal of dramatically increasing the quality of life for hundreds of Bahamians. By giving back to our community in ways that create stronger individuals and households, we can create stronger citizens and a stronger economy.
We feel that, by bringing people, companies, communities and government resources together we can serve to better the community as a whole, while helping to restore a feeling of ownership and responsibility of our Bahamas; land, soil, neighbors, and future.
