$100,000 Walmart Grant Aids Chamber's Graduate Retention Program

Yesterday just before the Tin Caps game started, the Greater Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce was honored by the State Giving Program of the Walmart Foundation and accepted a grant of $100,000 to benefit the Graduate Retention Program.

The mission of the Graduate Retention Program is to attract and retain high school and college graduates to Northeast Indiana by supplying them with quality internships and high-skill jobs.

If you are a student or employer wanting to learn more about internship opportunities, please let us know! Contact Kay Anthony at kanthony@fwchamber.org.

Thanks again to Walmart for their generous support!
