Irvine Volunteer Association (IVA) is a non-profit organization founded by a group of high school students in Orange County. Starting with making small changes in the community to inspire and impact the world in various aspects, IVA has united under one common motto: one “peace” a day. In order to spread awareness and raise money to alleviate the situation, IVA initiated a series of environmental awareness and community service projects to challenge students to think more critically about their futures and impacts.
IVA's mission is to encourage and advise students as they use their individual passions and talents to give back to the community.
