The Irvine Children's Fund (ICF) is announcing the kick off and celebration of the 33rd ANNUAL IRVINE JUNIOR GAMES (IJG), which will be held on Sunday, May 15, 2022, at the Irvine High School Stadium.
Through the Irvine Junior Games, grants, corporate and personal sponsorships, the Irvine Children’s Fund is proud to have donated over 3.2 million dollars toward childcare scholarships, maintenance and expansion of childcare facilities, completed the ADA upgrades at 7 child care sites, provided grants for instruction, athletic equipment, activities and supplies to the childcare sites. For 2021-2022, ICF has committed $80,000 for Before and After School Child Care Scholarships on the child care sites.
The Irvine Junior Games celebrates its 33rd year, and its continued growth and success because of the partnership between the IUSD, the Irvine Child Care Project, the Irvine Children's Fund, and the Irvine Junior Games. There continues to be 100% participation from all the elementary and middle schools with more than 1,200 students in grades 4-8 participating in the track and field events, including special events for the Adaptive P.E. students.
As this is a fundraising event for child care at Irvine school sites there will be a $40 charge to each participating athlete, which will include the athlete's participation and an IJG T-shirt. See the website for details about events students can participate in.
