The Indiana Family Care Center is excited to announce it has received a $3,500.00 grant from Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC (“Bendix”) to purchase two sets of washers and dryers to be used as part of the Hope 61 program!


The Indiana Family Care Center sincerely appreciates Bendix’s generous grant, “said Michelle Crone, executive director of Indiana Family Care Center.” The support provides immediate impact for our local community, and we look forward to continuing our work with them as a corporate sponsor.


Established in 2011, Hope 61 is a program delivering aid to community members faced with a challenge such as a house fire, domestic situation, trafficked individuals, or homelessness. The program also supports individuals at the time of life celebrations such as graduating from a program. The Indiana Family Care Center will bless individuals with items, including clothing, from the Revive Center and Op Shop to help them get back on their feet and restart their lives. The washers and dryers will be used to launder the clothing provided to individuals dealing with these circumstances.
