Since 2011, the Northeast Indiana Base Community Council has served as a catalyst in unifying the military, civilian and business communities of the greater Fort Wayne region. Our mission is to create the most engaged military region in the United States through awareness, collaboration, advocacy, workforce development and leadership.
Our vision is for Northeast Indiana to become America's most engaged military community. Our main focus is on education, collaboration, communication, and programs that will build, grow and enhance the quality of life in Northeast Indiana.
A large part of our efforts go toward the Military Support Fund, a 501(c)(3) fund established through Greater Fort Wayne Community Foundation to provide monetary grants to veterans for emergency living expenses. We raise money through memberships, donations and events such as our speaker series luncheons that bring world-class leaders from the military, civilian and business sectors to the Fort Wayne area. The NIBCC additionally hosts an annual golf tournament, and we receive support from Race for the Warrior, an annual 5k and 10k walk/run/roll that takes place on the runway of the Fort Wayne International Airport.
We welcome your support. Get involved today!
