Glick Philanthropies

Congratulations to Marianne Glick on being honored as the 2024 Indiana Conference for Women dedicatee! Thank you for sharing your story, inspiration, and call to vote by November 5. Marianne recited the following poem, The Women in the Glass, by Dale Wimbrow. When you get what you want as you struggle for self and the world makes you queen for a day, just go to the mirror and look at yourself, and see what that woman has to say. For it isn’t your father or mother or husband who’s judgement upon you must pass; The person whose verdict counts most in your life is the one staring back from the glass. She’s the person to please, never mind all the rest, for she’s with you clear up to the end. And you’ve passed your most dangerous, difficult test if the woman in the glass is your friend. You may fool the whole world down the pathway of life, and get pats on your back as you pass. But your final reward will be heartache and tears if you’ve cheated the woman in the glass.

*** UPDATE *** At this time, we can confirm all veterans have been accounted for. HVAF is open and operational. The Donald W. Moreau Sr. Veterans Community Center is open for our regular pantry hours: Tuesday/Thursday 11:30 P.M. - 2:30 P.M. --- On October 26, at around 9:30 P.M., there was a significant fire at HVAF of Indiana’s Manchester Apartments — located at 960 Pennsylvania Street in downtown Indianapolis. This facility serves as a transitional housing property for 48 homeless veterans. The damage was catastrophic, and we are unsure of the cause at this time. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and the Indianapolis Fire Department (IFD) are currently investigating the fire, please direct all fire-related questions to them. We are thankful for IFD promptly arriving on the scene to work to put out the fire, and for IndyGo providing busses for providing transportation for displaced veterans. Veterans have been relocated to local hotel rooms and we are coordinating with partners to provide appropriate support. If you would like to support HVAF during this time, please donate here: https://lnkd.in/gWwyg2sX You can also purchase items on our Amazon Wish List that we will provide to the displaced veterans, which can be accessed here: https://lnkd.in/gHcxaXAe For veterans struggling to return to self-sufficiency, the loss last night is unimaginable. We appreciate the support of our community as we work to rebuild and recover.

?? Philanthropic organizations can play a crucial role in preserving #affordablehousing by providing gap funding in the form of soft funds or low-cost loans, enabling the underwriting of lower rents and helping to meet community demand.

Voting is one of the most powerful ways to have a say in the issues that affect your community. Whether it’s local elections, statewide decisions, or national policies, every vote helps shape the future. The General Election will take place on November 5. Whether you want to make sure you’re ready to vote or you want to help your community prepare, we’ve compiled nonpartisan resources to help. Thank you to ACLU of Indiana, Women4Change Indiana, Common Cause, League of Women Voters, and others for your civic engagement leadership. #Vote #YourVoteYourVoice #MakingDemocracyWork
