STAYING SHARP OVER THE SUMMER BREAK

HUNTINGTON LEARNING CENTER’S PROGRAMS KEEPS KIDS FOCUSED Writer / Janelle Morrison Photographer / JJ Kaplan

The Huntington Learning Center in Carmel offers several top-notch programs that keep students’ skills sharp over the summer break. Whether they are working on subjects that may need some additional instruction, wanting to get a head start before the next school year or are practicing for the ACT and SAT, Huntington has the longest track record of helping students achieve academic success and boost their confidence. Both the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges accredit Huntington. Huntington’s teachers are highly trained in subject areas and test-taking strategies on the ACT and SAT. Huntington’s advanced study skills tutoring program is a one-on-one program, tailored to students at the eighth grade level or higher. The program focuses on executive functioning organization, time management and planning/preparation to help students effectively acquire, retrieve, analyze and

communicate information. Huntington’s approach is based on the notion that study skills must be learned and executed. Huntington helps the students find study methods and habits that work best for them, which builds their confidence and motivation to reach their fullest potential. Lindsay Cameron, center director for Huntington, spoke about the structure of the programs and the personalized services that it provides to the students. “We work with kindergarteners through 12th graders, and we focus on a wide range of programs here,” Cameron explained. “We work on reading comprehension, vocabulary, phonics, writing and math skills. We also have our study skills program. We work with our juniors and seniors who are preparing for the ACT and SAT. “Something else that we do is work with our eighth graders who are going into private or parochial school their freshman year. We prep them for the HSPT and the ISEE, the local private high school entrance exams for the state of Indiana. We focus on skills that will atZionsville.com / JUNE 2016 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / 7

go beyond just helping a student get through their next text which is a common request, but we provide the student with skills that will last a lifetime and help them to prepare for exams in high school, college and beyond. “Summer is our busiest time of the year. We offer mini programs like our study skills program and writing workshops for students who are looking to do something this summer to keep their skills fresh and maintain what they have learned the previous years. “A lot of our programs are in a 4-to-1 ratio, meaning there are no more than four students to one teacher. It’s all individualized instruction. We also have one-on-one programs where the student works privately with a tutor on whatever subject they need to work on. Math is a big point for us in the summertime, getting kids ready for the next level of math before the next school year. “When the student goes two months without practicing facts or their skills, it’s a very easy area to lose what they have retained over the school year. Most students come in two

The average session is about two hours per student.” “We meet with our parents face-to-face and conference with them usually every three to four weeks in a child’s program. We give them ideas on how to help create the right

environment for their child to study and how to eliminate any distractions. They need a dedicated study area where there aren’t any distractions – no music, no TV and they need to put their phone away. It is understandable that they may need their tablets or computers to complete their work, but they should use them in a central part of the house where the

parents can monitor without helicoptering and make sure that they are studying, focused and working.” Huntington is one of the few companies in the area that offers one-on-one tutoring for the ACT and SAT preparation. That offering has been evolving and expanding with all the

SAVE $125* changes that the College Board has produced. “The SAT just recently launched their new form of the test this past March,” Cameron said. “It has provided a lot of changes. The new SAT has proven to be much more challenging than the former SAT, and it has a lot of students and parents confused on what the best path for them will be. We feel confident in being able to guide them into the right direction and giving them that college preparation advice that they need to make the best decisions for their students.” Huntington has been pushing the ACT programs with its high school juniors because of the SAT changes. The SAT used to focus on reading, math and writing skills. Now, math is 50 percent of the test score. If a student is not strong in math, the SAT may not be the best test for them. The SAT also goes through upper level math skills whereas it only went through Algebra II before. It is now covering precalculus and trigonometry. The SAT also eliminated the use of a calculator in one of the sections, increasing its level of difficulty. “I really reinforce to our middle school kids that they have to know how to divide decimals and multiply fractions without being dependent on a calculator,” Cameron elaborated. “We have really been steering our students towards the ACT prep program because it is a known fact of what they need to get into schools. The universities have listed on their websites what their expectations are for the ACT and SAT scores, but the SAT results are based on the old SAT expectations in the scoring. They don’t know what a good score for the new SAT is because there hasn’t been enough data collected to figure out those averages. Celebrating her 10th year with Huntington, Cameron is passionate about education. “I have been in education for over 11 years,” she said. “I enjoy the personalization that we provide. When a child walks in the door, they are not just another sixth grader or just another eighth grader. They are somebody that has specific learning styles and needs, and

we work with them to their learning style and method. We personalize it to build their confidence. We strengthen their skills which ultimately makes them more motivated and produces successful results.”

WHO’S ON THE BENCH AT JEWEL BOX JEWELERS?

Zionsville’s oldest jewelry store has a new member of the team and a new full-time bench jeweler, Anna DeBoer. A recent graduate of Indiana University, DeBoer earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts in metals and jewelry design and was hired on by David Haug, owner of Jewel Box Jewelers, prior to her gradation. Originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, DeBoer began her artistic

exploration in photography while in high school and early on in her college career. Though passionate about the field of photography, she learned that her true passion was using her hands to create, rather than sitting behind a computer editing photos. “I figured out that I really wanted to go into the jewelry program while in college,” DeBoer said. “I really enjoy it and put my whole heart into it. My professors noticed that too, and they were very encouraging. My family has an artistic background and is very

FAMILY, FOOD & FLYING THE STORY OF SALLY SHAPIRO

Writer / Janelle Morrison Photographer / JJ Kaplan

Sally Keck Shapiro, wife of Brian Shapiro, married into the locally historic family 27 years ago. Together she and Brian have two grown children, a daughter and son, and are the fourth generation that has been serving the Indianapolis community for 110 years. When their children reached an age where she felt that she could become more involved with her family’s restaurant, Shapiro stepped into the role of Marketing Director and Brand Manager, one task or “hat” at a time.

“In the early days, I was the off-site project manager for the fifth generation, otherwise known as a stay-at-home mom,” Shapiro said. “I took over the business’ social media efforts around 2007, just at social media was really taking off and becoming a big part of a business’ marketing strategies. That soon led to my handling the customer service aspect and eventually the marketing and brand management for Shapiro’s.” Shapiro was raised in a family-owned and operated environment and was the fourth generation in her family’s car business prior to meeting her husband

12 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / JUNE 2016 / atZionsville.com

and becoming Shapiro’s fourth generation owners. Raised in a Methodist family, marrying into her husband’s Jewish family was a learning experience as they have raised their children in the Jewish faith. Shapiro would also learn the rich history of the Shapiro family that began in the United States in 1903 when Louis and Rebecca Shapiro arrived in Indianapolis from their native Odessa, Russia. The founding Shapiros opened a small grocery-deli just a couple blocks south from downtown Indianapolis. Over the century, the Shapiros grew their business, despite the Great Depression, Prohibition,


anti-Semitism and the days of the election of the well-known Ku Klux Klan member Ed Jackson as Indiana’s governor in 1925. Over the decades, the Shapiro family has maintained its core, and while they adapt to the changing times and wants of their customers, they remain true to the founding principles and high standards that were established long before they were even born. Shapiro’s downtown location stands in the original location of the early grocery-deli that opened in 1905. In January 2015, Shapiro’s launched a new concept, Shapiro’s Twisted Traditions, a fast-casual dining experience at Keystone at the Crossing’s Fashion Mall. Shapiro’s sells more than 3,000 pounds of corned beef a week along with an expanded array of handcrafted specialties made from scratch. “Over the years, we’ve remained true to who we are,” Shapiro

emphasized. “Brian and I go to food conferences every year to stay current on what the industry trends are. We strive to keep our presentation current and to be accommodating to our customers without changing our core principles. “For example, at our Keystone location, we offer sliders because the ladies who come to have lunch with us are not going to eat our giant corn beef sandwiches. Our entrances are accessible from both inside the mall and from the parking lot, directly into our restaurant. We have six dedicated parking spots with our signs posted that I refer to as our ‘Kosher-style parking.’ Numerous notable customers have visited Shapiro and her husband at their restaurant locations over the years, and with the recent political focus on Indianapolis this election season, the Shapiro’s downtown location was mobbed by the media and candidates in the weeks leading up to the Indiana primary.

atZionsville.com / JUNE 2016 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / 13


“My flight instructor was from Finland,” Shapiro recalled. “We would fly into these little airports during my training. She’d get out of the plane with her beautiful white blonde hair, and I would get out, 7 months pregnant. These old pilots would be sitting around the hangers staring at us, trying to figure out what these two girls climbing out of the cockpit were all about.”

“We hosted MSNBC with Thomas Roberts,” Shapiro said. “We also hosted CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360’s, Randi Kaye, who interviewed a few of our customers during the lunch-hour rush. Fox & Friends with Steve Doocy broadcasted live from Shapiro’s downtown, and just before Primary Election Day, our staff was given a 10-minute ‘heads-up’ to prepare and re-stock the cases for the arrival of Donald Trump.

Whenever possible, the Shapiros will enjoy an extended weekend at their vacation home in northern Michigan, only a 2-hour flight from Indianapolis Executive Airport. The airport is not far from their residence that is just south of the Zionsville Presbyterian Church along the Hamilton and Boone County lines. She keeps her high-performance, single-engine, retractable gear, six-seater Piper Saratoga at Indianapolis Executive Airport. “Flying is a great passion of mine and is an identity for me,” Shapiro explained. “I try to fly 100 hours a year to stay current. I typically cruise at about 155 knots, which is about 180 mph. I learned from my dad to always fly safe, not to cut corners and to always be thorough. I’ve always got one ear to the communication radios and one ear to my music, putting all of my other thoughts and concerns to the side.

“Our staff scrambled to spiff up the place and fill the cases that had been depleted by the barrage of media and guests over the days leading up to the elections. After Trump’s visit to Shapiro’s, I thought my computer was going to start smoking from the activity on our social media. Trump tweeted a mention of Shapiro’s that received 36,000 ‘Likes’ and 2,300 shares. It was unbelievable.” With the all of the recent hubbub and the typical nuances that come with owning and operating a family-owned business, especially a 110-year-old legacy business, Shapiro emphasized the importance of maintaining her own identity while balancing her role as wife, mother and business owner. Shapiro’s father was a WWII pilot and flew a single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza where she spent a great deal of time sitting in the backseat, staring off into the horizon, as a child. When Shapiro’s firstborn was a year old, she decided that she was going to learn to fly and reconnect with the sounds, sights and smells that brought back so many happy memories for her. Taking advantage of the availability of summertime babysitters, Shapiro received her pilot’s license in three months. She began her instrument rating while she was pregnant with her second child.

14 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / JUNE 2016 / atZionsville.com


Brian and Sally Shapiro

“My dad always said that a pilot must concentrate on flying. When flying, I can enjoy the sunshine and the environment that surrounds me. My favorite memory of flying was when I flew my dad for the last time. Six months before he passed away, I took him up and flew 1,000 feet off of the ground, along the shoreline and down Lake Michigan. I flew just far enough out, so that he could see the shoreline one last time. “I also love flying at sunset into the clouds and seeing the brilliant colors penetrating through the clouds all around me. It is a beautiful view. I believe that you have to be passionate about something in your life, and my passions are my family, our family business and cruising the skyline.” Shapiro’s example of living a full and well-balanced life gives us pause to ponder that if we are true to our families, our professions and to our passions, then we just might be living good and full lives.

Celebrating this year its 61st year, the fair features over 250 artists both locally and from across the United States. The artists converge on Talbot Street between 16th and 20th Streets to present their work in many mediums. These include sculpture, glass, painting, jewelry, photography, ceramics, wood, printmaking, mixed media and fiber. The host neighborhood, Herron-Morton Place, invites several food venues to the site, so refreshments can be purchased while

viewing the art. This is a family-friendly event, and as always, the admission is free! The fair will be held, rain or shine.

A VILLAGE LANDMARK GETS A NEW OWNER AND DIRECTION

atZionsville.com / JUNE 2016 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / 27


Upon Carter’s death in 2011, his family auctioned his collection, and the building went up on the market. The rooms that were once filled with the wonderment and joy of its visitors sat vacant and still until the recent purchase of the building by the Price family in 2016. No strangers to Zionsville, the Prices have been members of the community since 1980. The patriarch of the family, Ken Price spoke about his family’s community ties that include his three children and nine grandchildren who also reside in Zionsville. “All of our children, Mike, Matt and Angela, were raised in and currently live in Zionsville along with their families,” Price said. “Before I retired as an engineer, we started buying some properties along Main Street. This is a substantial village that has a marvelous reputation, and investing Writer / Janelle Morrison . Photographer / JJ Kaplan in properties that are likely to increase in value was just a smart thing for us to do Built in 2005, the Carter Building was once home to Robert Carter’s expansive antique toy for our future and our children’s futures. Once we began fixing up the buildings and museum. The building housed a 1950s-style reinvesting with the revenue earned off the ice cream parlor that opened in 2007. The buildings, we began improving the buildings basement entertained children and adults even further.” alike with bumper cars, and the museum contained a working carousel. Carter’s passion Local residents may recall that there was a for antiques and vintage toys led him to substantial amount of damage sustained to accumulate a collection that rivaled those of the front façade of the Potpourri Building, many state and national museums. also owned by the Price family, as a result of 28 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / JUNE 2016 / atZionsville.com

a vehicular accident. The family remodeled and improved the structure that has a popular history as a bridal parlor and a reputation that goes as far away as Chicago, Illinois. “If someone is considering making a solid investment, then a wise investment would be in land and buildings that are in desirable locations,” Price said. “These are investments that retain their value. We thought that this was and continues to be a wise focus for our family. We bought properties in our town that we can see, take care of and know what is going on around them. After being cited for fixing up and beautifying our properties, we realized that the added bonus is that we are contributing to making our downtown more attractive.” After purchasing the Carter Building, Price and his son Matt began working with the town of Zionsville on issues such as the parking ordinance. Originally, the building had a parking variance permitted for a toy museum and is allocated a dozen parking spots. Price emphasized that the town council, mayor and department heads that were involved in the process were immensely supportive and helpful. There were no objections for a new variance when the Prices went before the Board of Zoning Appeals.


With the parking variance approved, the family proceeded with the next phase. What would become of the 14,000 square-foot building? “When you own a building, you have to respond to what people want and what would make a good fit in the community,” Price stated. “We have a fund set aside to make the necessary modifications that will attract good tenants. The former owner, Mrs. Carter, did not want to go through the efforts of modifying, subdividing the space and dealing with prospective tenants at that stage in her life. To her credit, it is a laborious process and a lot of legalisms that go into making all of that happen.” When asked what types of tenants and uses the Prices would like to see within their building, Price said that while there has been talk of apartments that would be leased on the top floor of the building, it is not the most likely of outcomes. “We’ve had people come and ask if we were going to convert the spaces into apartments or condominiums and ask when they could put down a deposit,” Price said with a chuckle. “There is one apartment on the top floor that Carter used to house his monitoring systems that kept a close eye on his collection of antiques while he was alive. “While no one has ever lived in that space, it is a nice one-bedroom facility. The downside to converting the space into apartments is that we would be giving up

a lot of control on what goes on within the building. We brought in contractors to examine and entertain the various possibilities that would be feasible and economical. We can easily partition and subdivide the interior spaces without having to redirect the existing HVAC runs and ductwork. Thermostats can be installed, so that tenants can control their specific areas or floors. The building is well wired with drop ceilings for easy access and hook-ups. “It is an ideal situation with plenty of opportunities to make modifications and to subdivide the interior spaces. Ideally we would have three tenants, one for each floor, because it is subdivided that way now from a power perspective but we know that is likely not going to happen.” Price said that he personally would like to see the ice cream parlor revitalized by a small restaurateur who would keep the personality and interior touches that remain in that particular space. What is important to him and all of the members of the Price family is taking their time and finding the right tenants for the building. “We are not in a hurry and are currently looking at recruiting the right tenants for our building,” Price said. “We are looking for people who are established in their businesses and are proven. We want to solicit people and businesses that will be a good fit in downtown Zionsville.” Matt weighed in on some possibilities atZionsville.com / JUNE 2016 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / 29

that they are currently examining and entertaining. “zWorks is a neighbor to our building, and there is the possibility that as the companies that incubate there grow, we could be a possible location for that type of office use,” Matt explained. “We’ve had conversations related to that concept, and it remains a possibility that we could provide the next location for these companies that have grown and need more space. “Our town’s leadership has been very thoughtful about the reinvigoration of downtown Zionsville and along Main Street. Along with the private investment that our family and the other property owners have made, the town’s leaders have worked hard to create an environment that attracts businesses. Recent public policies promote and encourage the property owners to reinvest.” While the Price family is looking forward to what the future holds for their latest investment in the Carter Building, they are committed to honoring the family that came before them and immortalizing their legacy. “The Carter family has contributed a great deal to Zionsville over the decades,” Matt emphasized. “We wanted to show our appreciation for their contributions, and so we had written in the deed that the building shall be forever named the ‘Carter Building’ in remembrance of the man and the family who helped build our town.”


THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND FUELICIOUS granting. The “wish” Children are referred to the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund by their doctors, nurses, social workers, parents, etc.

Writer / Janelle Morrison Photos provided by Fuelicious

The Artomobilia team and its partners are gearing up for the 2nd Annual Fuelicious event held at the 33-acre Lucas Oil Estate in Carmel, on Friday, August 26, 2016. In quickly becoming one of the must attend events of the summer, Fuelicious excites the senses by delivering a premium culinary experience, uncompromised access to an unbelievable collection of automobiles, a premier audience of committed automotive enthusiasts all in the elegant surroundings of the Lucas Oil Estate. Combine that environment with knowledge that the proceeds go to support the great work of the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund and you have a can’t miss event. Purpose drives the focus of this event by combining the awareness and the resources of automotive enthusiasts, business leaders, and local personalities in supporting the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. Indiana Children’s Wish Fund is a 501(c )(3) and single-entity, statewide wish-granting organization focused on Indiana children, ages 3-18, with life-threatening or terminal illness. Indiana Children’s Wish Fund is not affiliated with any other wish-granting organizations. It was founded in August of 1984 and is celebrating over 30 years of wish

John Leonard, the Executive Director of Artomobilia and founder of Fuelicious, described what participants, sponsors and guests should expect to experience during this year’s Artmobilia and Fuelicious events. “I go to a number of car events around the country each year and one of my favorites my family and I attend is the Monterey Car week,” Leonard said. “Thousands of people come from all over the country to check out all of that show’s events. They come out because it’s a beautiful location but more so because of the content of the cars is fantastic. In a course of 4 -5 days, attendees can enjoy between 5 and 10 different events and each event is tailored for a specific demographic. The entire experience is high-end and offers first-rate customer experience. Those are the same characteristics that I am trying to create with Artomobilia weekend along with Fuelicious. The first priority is that we want everyone to have a full white glove experience. The city of Carmel has a tremendous amount of assets and we are trying to leverage those one-by-one in order to offer great experiences in unique environments with great content. “Artomobilia all started because I really enjoy cars and it’s an passion of mine but what keeps me motivated are the stories from the car owners and their incredible tales and because the Artomobilia weekend supports a really great and local cause. The people that support Artmobilia have been really 30 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / JUNE 2016 / atZionsville.com

supportive of the cause and so it made sense for the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund to be our focus at Fuelicious.” Terry Ceaser-Hudson, executive director of the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund, spoke about the impact the fundraisers such as Fuelicious has on their organization and what that enables them to do for Hoosier children. Since joining the organization in 1985,


INDIANA CHILDREN’S WISH FUND • The average cost of a wish is $6,000. • We are a not-for-profit 501C3 recognized charity registered with the State of Indiana. • Funding for wishes is made possible through the support of corporate donations, individuals and fundraising events. Hudson has redeveloped the organization’s fundraising mechanisms and to date, the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund has granted more than 3,200 wishes to Indiana Children.

but in my opinion, it is one of the finest events in the community. From the minute that you arrive at Fuelicious, you feel like you are at something very special. You feel special and you know that you are doing “One of the first things that we did after I something incredible for Hoosier children. came into the organization was reformat Every that penny that we receive goes how we raised funds and we began directly to our children’s wishes. This event fundraising through fabulous events and is growing I think that it has the potential to long term partnerships with corporations become one of the largest fundraisers that and individuals rather than solicitations,” benefits our organization and the Indiana Hudson said. “Fuelicious has become one of children that we serve.” my favorite fundraisers. It is a newer event

Fuelicious assembles one of the most unique and desirable collections of automobiles and automotive enthusiasts. Sponsorships are currently available. If you have this same perspective and values, they invite you to join their efforts as a partner for the up-coming Fuelicious event in support of the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. You can support the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund by hosting 10 individuals with a table, or entertain your clients and/or reach a broader audience with a corporate sponsorship.

Nancy Chance and Stacia Matthews

Matthews is assisting the group in their coordination and advocacy of the upcoming run/walk. The event will take place in the parking lot of the 60,000 square-foot facility; soon it will be 110,000 square feet with the expansion of 20 new patient rooms and three operating rooms in January 2017.

TAKE A STEP TOWARD ENDING HUNGER

“The inaugural run/walk is a familyfriendly flat course that is designed for everybody,” Matthews said. “When we learned that there were food insecure families and that those numbers were growing here in central Indiana, we thought that this would be a good fit for our organization, and we would be able to help raise awareness.

“We are working with Nancy Chance with the Good Samaritan Network, and she informed us that Hamilton County is in the red zone. The number of food insecure families is increasing. If we can help people and provide them with food, then they will be healthier, and there will be less absentees at school. Without nutritious food, children could grow up with deficiencies that could cause health problems in the years to come.

Writer / Janelle Morrison Photographer / JJ Kaplan

Would you be able to detect a food insecure family here in your county? Would it surprise you to learn that Hamilton County is in the only “red” “While we want this to become an annual event to assist with zone in Indiana which categorically means that approximately 30,000 the issues of food insecurity, we hope that the event becomes residents are food insecure? unnecessary, and that the cause will no longer be relevant.” The physicians and staff at the Indiana Spine Group (ISG), a clinical team comprised of board-certified physicians and surgeons, nurse practitioners and physical therapists who work together to provide the best in spine care locally, learned about the rising numbers of people in need of nutritious food and decided to “step” up to host the inaugural “Steps to End Hunger” 5K, 1-mile run/ walk and family festival on the evening of June 25. ISG has teamed up with Gleaners Food Bank to help feed hungry Hoosiers. Proceeds from the family fun run/walk and festival will benefit Gleaners BackSacks Weekend Food for Kids program. “The program provides children with meals that they can eat over the weekend,” said ISG’s public relations manager Stacia Matthews. “These are children who rely on school lunch programs as their main meal throughout the day. This sack that they take home every Friday will ensure that they have nutritious food through the weekend.” The event is ISG’s way to help raise awareness of a well-masked issue that affects families throughout our state.

During the run/walk, there will be family-friendly activities going on in the ISG parking lot, including bounce houses, pizza and offerings from Neighborhood Pizza and other activities throughout the event. ISG’s CEO Hardy Sikand emphasized that their group is dedicated to giving back to their community and to serving their county and local areas in need. “Each of our physicians are very interested in giving back to this community and to the greater central Indiana communities,” Sikand said. “We are all involved at an individual and group level of supporting local programs and organizations that benefit the people of our communities. We are proud to be hosting this event and are grateful to our sponsors who are supporting ISG, so that we can, in turn, support the efforts of Gleaners and their volunteers. Our group of physicians are incredible, socially-conscious individuals and believe in giving back to their communities and to their patients as well.”

32 / ZIONSVILLE MAGAZINE / JUNE 2016 / atZionsville.com


David Moore, Chief Advancement Officer for Gleaners Food Bank, oversees marketing, fundraising and volunteering as well as food sourcing. “It is very important that people register for this run/walk and participate because there are a lot of hungry Hoosiers, and there are a lot of hungry Hoosiers in Hamilton County,” Moore stated. “Those folks need somebody to help them through a very difficult time, and by doing this run/walk, this is highlighting our BackSacks program and helping to ensure that the children who receive the BackSacks are provided with six meals on a Friday, so that they can eat on the weekend.

Our sister publication, Carmel Magazine, which was media sponsor for another Gleaners benefit, Wine, Women & Shoes, is proud to be the media sponsor for this additional Gleaners event to support its BackSacks program that is helping feed children all over central Indiana.

“They will be prepared to come back to school on a Monday, and rather than thinking about when they do they get to eat next, they are focused on their learning. It takes $8 million for us to fund our programs annually. We distribute about 30 million pounds of food. It requires a lot of money that is needed, and we spend every penny of it making sure that the food goes out to the people who truly need it. “We want people to understand that $1 can provide three meals for somebody. Our buying power gives us the opportunity to take that dollar and turn it into three meals. That makes a huge difference in the lives of those who are relying on us to help them during a difficult time in their lives.”
