Outreach

Last night’s Transform event was an unforgettable evening of art, transformation, and lifting up the voices of so many champions! We are sincerely blessed and beyond grateful to everyone who attended! Thank you! Because of YOU—our amazing supporters, sponsors, and most importantly, the incredible youth champions who shared their stories—our community came together to celebrate resilience and transformation. A special thank you to Alleato Group, whose generous sponsorship helped make the night possible. The stories shared from youth champions, the artwork displayed, and the support shown have left a lasting impact on us all. With your support, young people are getting the resources and encouragement they need to transform their lives and realize their potential. We are truly grateful for all who attended and committed to being champions in the fight to end youth homelessness. There’s still time to be part of this life-changing mission, even if you weren't able to attend the event. You can still help us reach our goal of raising $125,000 to continue this work.

We are proud to acknowledge and thank this year's Outreach Legacy Awardees, Joe & Julie Wendel. ? Joe and Julie’s commitment to giving has been a cornerstone of their lives. Whether through their professional work, generous hospitality, or practical gifts, their support has always been rooted in giving. As they’ve been blessed over the years, their acts of kindness have expanded through the 7 Silos giving vehicle, allowing their generosity to reach even more people in need. Joe and Julie Wendel have been pillars of our central Indiana community since 1998. Joe, with his engineering background, and Julie, with her expertise in education, have devoted themselves to family and service. ? They’ve raised two sons, and for twenty-five years, Joe led their family business, while Julie welcomed and cared for thousands at Wendel Woods, the Sylvan Sanctuary in Noblesville they call home. Their dedication exemplifies the true spirit of community and the profound impact that thoughtful giving can have. Thank you, Joe and Julie, for all you do to equip and empower youth!

We are proud to thank Outreach's 2024 recipient of the Volunteer Impact Award, Tammy Dunn. Seventeen years ago, Tammy discovered Outreach at a Symphony on the Prairie fundraiser and began volunteering. Her connection with Outreach youth has profoundly shaped her faith and approach to life. Tammy continues to volunteer weekly with Outreach’s and feels privileged to be part of God's work through the organization. ? One of her proudest achievements is founding “Ladies Night,” a support group for female Outreach clients, 13 years ago. She remains actively involved with this group today. Tammy Dunn is a dedicated wife to Craig, a former Outreach board member, and a loving mother of three and grandmother of five. Her lifelong commitment to service includes roles as a foster parent, Big Sister, CASA volunteer, and work in women’s prisons, shelters, and immigration services. Thank you, Tammy, for all you do to empower and equip youth!
