  • 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.

    Fort Wayne Parks & Recreation Department Staff Reports reporting December 13, 2018 thru to February 12, 2019 Steve McDaniel ~ Director The design team members for the next phases of Riverfront Development were in town in January for a public engagement meeting at the Grand Wayne. We had great attendance for this event by the public. The consultant for the Franke Park Master Plan had two concepts that they showed at a public meeting on February 7th. That gave the public an opportunity to see the plans and make comments before the final draft plan will be put together. NIPSCO demobilized their work at the Old Fort and in the river. They will be restoring the site in the spring. We have been approached by the landowners of a parcel adjacent and north of Kreager Park. We received two appraisals which the average came in at a little over $2,400. We are putting together a purchase agreement contingent on Board and City Council approval. We received the second disbursement from Regional Cities for RDA funds for Promenade Park in the beginning of January. We are working with a vendor on lease documents, buildout plans, and costs for the restauranteur for Promenade Park. Legal will be reviewing the lease as we look at the construction plans for the buildout of the space. We received qualifications from several companies as we look at a different ticketing system for the Foellinger Theater. We have started the internal review process to determine which system would be best for our use and the customer. We are starting the process to update our Community Needs Assessment.

Rhoades at Death of Bishop John M. D’Arcy FEBRUARY 3, 2013 oday our beloved Bishop Emeritus John M. D’Arcy died in the peace of Christ. I am filled with deep sadness at the death of a dear friend Tand brother bishop. We mourn the death of a good shepherd after the heart of Christ, a bishop who loved the Lord and his people with all his heart. We are com- forted at this time by our faith in the Resurrection. As we share the pain of loss, Our Lord’s promise of eter- nal life gives us joy and hope. Bishop D’Arcy faced death as he also lived his life: with deep faith and trust in God. He offered his prayers and sufferings this past month for the people he loved and served with joy and faithfulness these past 28 years in the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend. I thank the faithful of our diocese for the many prayers offered for Bishop D’Arcy in his final days. Your loving and prayerful support brought him much joy and comfort.
