"Notre Dame has given us all the ability to see the story of a love that suffered to the point of death and is victorious." and then do something with this knowledge.

Due to notable programming in 2025, our Club has been recognized as achieving Program of Excellence. This acknowledges the Club as a force for good through demonstrating a commitment to Our Lady’s University and the Notre Dame family in your community.

In addition, the Notre Dame Club of Fort Wayne was awarded a Special Citation. The special recognition is awarded to clubs that have done amazing work, whether it's through their programs, engaging with alumni, parents, and friends, having great communication, or much more.

Here’s a quote from the Regional Director:

"The Notre Dame Club of Fort Wayne is recognized for their activities in the local community. Congratulations on harnessing the positive feedback from the news coverage and promotion of Coach Freeman's visit to increase membership and sponsorships. And an additional recognition to the club for their successful partnerships with the Diocese of Fort Wayne, Young Leaders of Northeast Indiana and the University of St Francis. These partnerships resulted in a broader reach for community programs and support. And I would be remiss not to include a "shout out" for the Buddy Bench. I absolutely love it! Thank you for all you do to be a force for good in your community. I am grateful for your dedication and efforts. Go Irish!"

2026 UND Celebration, June 3rd

The Notre Dame Club of Fort Wayne invites you to join us for the 2026 Universal Notre Dame Celebration! Beginning as a radio broadcast in 1924, this signature program from the Alumni Association has since brought the Notre Dame campus to local communities all over the world.

Our 2026 UND Celebration theme, Cultivators of Hope, highlights just a few of the many ways that the Notre Dame community cultivates hope. In a world where hope is often in short supply, the work being done on campus and extending far beyond its boundaries is proving that hope is not a passive wish, but something we’re actively working toward as a calculated, scientific, and spiritual force for good.

Hold your calendar for June 3rd for an evening celebration at the Fort Wayne Country Club. More event details to follow.
