About us

Mission Statement

The Iranian Cultural Foundation-Houston (ICF-H) is a non-profit, non-political organization with no religious affiliation that fosters the educational, social, and charitable interests of the Iranian-American community. It promotes the appreciation of Persian culture and nurtures a deeper understanding between the Iranian and American communities.

Why ICF?

Why is it necessary for our Iranian-American community to have a cultural foundation in a city like Houston? After all, there are other organizations in this town that happen to be very successful in their pursuits. Aren’t those enough?

  • Provide social and charitable services to our community
  • Host forums & conferences
  • Hold lecture series, concerts, and plays
  • Celebrate Iranian holidays
