Community Focus: Waynedale Green Alliance

I wanted to take a moment and highlight a local (Fort Wayne, Indiana) organization, the Waynedale Green Alliance. I’m not personally connected to the group however I do support their efforts to raise the environmental awareness of their neighbors.

The Waynedale Green Alliance, founded by April D. Langschied owner of A Brewster Smythe Concepts, mission is to bring the new “green” vocabulary to Waynedale and the Greater Fort Wayne area. They have published the Green ABCs and publish a bi-monthly column in the Waynedale News.

The Waynedale Green Alliance is currently working with the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department to bring the Green ABC’s to Fort Wayne residents and are set to have discussions with area schools such as Wayne High School’s Freshman Initiative.

They are scheduled to appear at The Good Life Show, October 24th-26th and are looking for volunteers. I would check out their website and let them know if you are interested in volunteering or getting involved in general.

    I am excited about the Good Life Show in Fort Wayne. It is wonderful that they are openning the doors for free to the public. There really isn’t any excuse not to attend and see all of the green products. Here is their website: http://www.home-gardenshow.com/goodlifeindex1.html

    I think the Green ABCs are a great idea. I spoke with the project manager at the Good Life Show and he really got me excited about it. A program that will help adults learn more about what we can do to make an impact on the environment. This is exactly what Fort Wayne needs. Thanks Waynedale Green Alliance!!
