What Your Support Can Help Us Build 

As many of our traditions and beliefs hold, there is a time and a season for everything. The need and opportunity for bridging deep divides has never been more clear. At IFYC, we believe that it is a time to build.  Over the past 20 years and today, IFYC prioritizes the deep interfaith relationship-building that transforms individuals, communities, and possibly, a nation. In this time to build we will redouble our efforts to work towards a ‘potluck nation’ where people of all religious backgrounds have a seat at the table and feast together. 

As we continue to work with young people and educators on campus, employees in corporations, and civic leaders across the nation to make interfaith cooperation the norm in our society, we invite you to join us. Explore more about what your gift can help us build.
