About US
The Edward G. Irvin Foundation was established in 2001, as the philanthropic arm of the Chicago Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. It is a separate non-profit, tax exempt, publicly supported organization. This Foundation is organized exclusively for charitable, scientific, literary and educational purposes within the meaning of section 501(C)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Edward G. Irvin Foundation Center was formerly a Jane Addams Hull House Association affiliate, known as Parkway Community House. Parkway Community House had a long and rich history in Chicago, first in Bronzeville and later Woodlawn. Edward G. Irvin Foundation Center will extend that legacy by housing our programs, and serving as a beacon of light in our community
