| IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Grants to Fort Wayne Community Schools (FWCS) for musical instruments purchases are supported with a written quote for the cost of the instruments. The Purchasing Dept for FWCS obtains the quote and supplies the Foundation with the documentation. The grant is made for the exact amount of the quote. The Foundation makes sure the granted amount is then used by FWCS to immediately buy the instruments. This is done by observation of the Purchase Order issued to the vendor and subsequent payments after delivery. Grants for band instruction are a reimbursement grant based on actual expenditures as evidenced by detailed expenditure reports from FWCS. The grant to FWCS for Amp Lab was supported by a written agreement between FWCS and Parkview Health. We confirmed by observation to funds were used for the purpose intended. |

| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The primary purpose of the FWCS Foundation is to generate and distribute financial resources to and for Fort Wayne Community Schools in support of the Mission and Vision. In December 2022, Parkview Health, a not-for-profit organization, entered into an agreement with Fort Wayne Community Schools for financial sponsorship including naming rights to the Make Studio at Amp Lap. Amp Lab is a unique program for 11th and 12th graders in a new FWCS facility. Parkview Health requested to make this payment in 2023 to the FWCS Foundation, Inc. to pass on to Fort Wayne Community Schools. The Foundation agreed to facilitate the transaction and passed the $625,000 on to Fort Wayne Community Schools. |
