Pfleiderer Trust Gives $10,000 To CCS

Posted

The Pfleiderer Trust donated $10,000 Monday afternoon to Combined Community Services for its building project on Mariner Drive in Warsaw.

CCS Executive Director Steve Possell said they hope to have the building completely paid off and move in next month.

‘We continue to appreciate the help from the community,’ said Possell. The new CCS building is completely funded by donations and grants, and no tax money was used for the facilities, he said.

Don and Marty Scearce provided the property to CCS at reduced cost. Possell said people can check CCS’s website at www.combinedcommunityservices.org and Facebook page for upcoming events.

The Pfleiderer Charitable Trust was established by Esther Pfleiderer to assist charitable organizations in Kosciusko County in improving the quality of life in the county. She was born and raised in Warsaw and taught math for 39 years in the Warsaw school system.

She also was very active in the community, serving on the boards of the Salvation Army, Warsaw Community Public Library, Kosciusko County Community Foundation, Kosciusko County Historial Society and the ministries of the First Presbyterian Church. In 1982, she was recognized as Warsaw’s Woman of the Year.

Grant applications are available from 1st Source Bank Personal Asset Management Group offices at 120 S. Lake St., Warsaw. The next deadline for grant applications is Sept. 30.
