Mission
Illini Sheltering Hands Society (ISHS) stands as a cornerstone in cultivating a
vibrant and inclusive community at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Our
core objective is to empower students with essential life-saving skills and engage them in
initiatives aimed at supporting homeless communities both on campus and in the surrounding
area. Through a comprehensive range of events, workshops, and volunteering initiatives, ISHS
equips students with the knowledge and tools to actively participate in service, leadership, and
skill-building endeavors, thereby enriching campus life and promoting social responsibility. We
are committed to fostering a culture of collaboration, empathy, and individual growth among our
members as we work towards creating a community where fairness, equality, and mutual support
thrive, ensuring a profound sense of belonging and unity within the university and beyond.
