We were looking at our website the other day, and we realized, "Hey, we designed this site before Facebook was around, and therefore is so outdated that we had better do something!" This led us to place the entire site "under construction" while we find some smart high schooler to "make it hip" (sorry, probably another outdated term).
But, while you are here, let's at least tell you a few things about us:
Who we are:
The Northeast Indiana Burn Council, Inc. provides assistance to children, adults & families affected by a burn incident in Northern Indiana, Northwest Ohio, or Southeast Michigan.
Typically, we are referred to a family in need by a designated staff member of the Regional Burn Center at St. Joseph Hospital. However, we encourage all Burn Survivors and their families to contact us at any time.
Exciting News:
We are announcing that we are about THIS FAR AWAY (picture my thumb and index finger spread very thinly apart) from signing the lease within the Medical Office Building of St. Joseph Hospital to start building our Burn Family Suites (our "Ronald McDonald House"-like rooms for families with loved ones in the Regional Burn Center at St. Joseph Hospital to rest, reflect and regroup).
This is very exciting! We have been planning these rooms for over two years now, and with the help of the Indiana State Lions Clubs, Leo Clubs, a private foundation and the Steel Dynamics Foundation, we are almost ready to start construction! Stay tuned for more details to come!
2nd Chance Prom:
Its time again for our 2nd Chance Prom! On March 6, 2010, the Marriott Marquis Ballroom on Coldwater/Washington Center Road in Fort Wayne will be Unforgettable: inspired by the Rat Pack of the 1950s, you will experience the Vegas of yesteryear, with the mystique and majest of Frank, Sammy, Marilyn & the rest of the Rat Pack.
All proceeds will help complete our Burn Family Suites (see above).
