  • Women's Bureau Annual Report 2010
    WOMEN’S BUREAU 2010 Annual Report Advancing Women Through Advocacy, Education and Economic Empowerment Smashing Success in 2010! In 2010, the economy continued struggling. Many social service agencies laid-off employees while the state cut funding and foundations found fewer dollars to disperse. The picture was bleak for many yet the Women’s Bureau can point to an incredibly successful year due to the hard work of dedicated staff members Left to Right: Earlene Cunegin, CFO; and generous community supporters. Patty VanLeuven, COO; Jeanette Dillon, CEO The Women’s Bureau was among those who had to layoff staff and reconfigure positions in 2010. Despite that, more clients were served by the Bureau in 2010 than were served in 2009. Moreover, the Bureau managed to end 2010 in the black, a major change from the $120,000 deficit of 2009. Certainly a major aspect of the Bureau’s success in 2010 was the incredible year of fundraisers. From the return of the run, jane, run Golf Classic to a remarkable Walk A Mile In Her Shoes during which 967 participants put the Bureau in the Guinness Book of World Records, 2010 events raised money to support needed services at the Bureau. Another success in 2010 was the Bureau’s receipt of CARF accreditation for the third time. CARF International awarded the Bureau with its top level Three-Year Accreditation after demonstrating to a team of surveyors that the Bureau’s programs and services continue to be measurable, accountable and of the highest quality. The Women’s Bureau also entered into more collaborations with other nonprofits to better serve the disadvantaged of the community.

  • Higher Ed Opportunities by Charlee Beasor Fort Wayne Team ‘Mad’ About Business Forum
    Higher Ed Opportunities By Charlee Beasor Fort Wayne Team ‘Mad’ About Business Forum usiness and basketball: We’ve read many times that all professional sports are “just a business,” but the two terms don’t always share a common bond. For the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, however, the pairing makes perfect sense. Last year, the NBA development league team established the Mad Ants Business BForum, which hosts business professionals as lecturers during a six-session series. Speakers address the crowd and network with local business leaders, young professionals and college students prior to home basketball games at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum. “At first glance, why in the world would a basketball team start this?” admits Sarah Wladecki, vice president of the Mad Ants and business forum coordinator. “There was a team in Maine that realized they had connections to some pretty powerful people in the community.” She notes that the forum encourages the “young professional demographic” to get involved with the team. “They are potentially in the future going to rise to leadership positions in their companies. It’s a good group of people to get involved with,” Wladecki explains. “We also have connections with a similar group of very well-known and very successful business people,” thanks in large part to the team’s ties with the NBA, investors and team majority owner John Zeglis – former chairman and CEO for AT&T Wireless. The team is partnering with Manchester College for the program’s second year. “We didn’t really have (a partner) last year – we were just getting started, making sure we worked out all the kinks.
