South Bend, Ind. (August 30, 2023) – The 1st Source Foundation recently awarded Pathfinder Services a $10,000 grant to support the replacement of a deteriorating group home with two newly constructed houses for people with disabilities.

“Pathfinder Services is an invaluable resource to our community, as they provide support for people with developmental, physical, social, or economic challenges,” states Luke Squires, Fort Wayne Region President with 1st Source Bank. “1st Source stands by their commitment to ensuring that people of all abilities have the opportunity to live their best life, and we know this grant from the 1st Source Foundation will aid in that mission.”

“The 1st Source Foundation understands the importance of supporting the community,” Aubrey Eastway, Chief Development & Marketing Officer for Pathfinder Services shares. “A stronger thriving community supports each other, and their support will help us make it possible for individuals with higher medical needs to be safe, comfortable, and more independent in their homes. Thank you, 1st Source Foundation, for your continued support to the fullest!”

The proposed design calls for two four-bedroom homes, with adaptive and assistive technology, all of which will provide privacy, autonomy and safety for the residents.
