Andrea Kendall, MLK Montessori School's Board Chair, was recognized as this year's recipient of our David A. Bobilya Excellence in Nonprofit Leadership Award. The 17th leadership award ceremony took place on October 23rd, 2024. Congratulations Andrea!
Foellinger Foundation established the David A. Bobilya Excellence in Nonprofit Leadership Award to recognize the importance of individual board members in nonprofit organizations. Each year, this award is given to an Allen County nonprofit board member who exemplifies four focus areas: governance, leadership, financial sustainability, and program impact. The award recipient’s nominating organization receives a $25,000 operating grant.
In 2013, Andrea joined the MLK Montessori Board, where she served as board treasurer before becoming board chair in 2015. A role she has held ever since. Andrea has led efforts to expand the school’s program offerings, to diversify and strengthen the organization’s board of directors, and to broaden the educational experiences offered by MLK Montessori. Thank you for being a partner and a champion of opportunity in Allen County.
