About ICI

Students who think creativity should help someone.

We believe creativity can drive change in our communities.

Illini Creative Impact is a student organization at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. We look for places where students can be genuinely useful (a nonprofit that needs promotional materials, a campus that could use a better art event, a cause that deserves more attention) and then we do the work.

Creativity, to us, isn’t limited to art. It’s problem solving, entrepreneurship, strategy, organizing, design, and communication. We’re not just a volunteering club, an art club, or a consulting club; we borrow from all three and keep the door open to anyone who wants to contribute.

If you’re a business student looking for practical experience that matters, you’ll find it here. If you’re not, you’re just as welcome. Every major, no experience required.
