Historic Fort Wayne Coalition

Historic Fort Wayne challenge coinThe Historic Fort Wayne Coalition was formed in 2004 by a group of individuals from all walks of life who share one common goal — to be a positive force for the restoration and promotion of Detroit’s Historic Fort Wayne. In 2007 the coalition was awarded 501(c)(3) nonprofit status by the IRS. The group works side by side with the City of Detroit Recreation Department, Friends of Fort Wayne, Colonial Dames in the State of Michigan, the Detroit Historical Society, Tuskegee Airmen, and other groups. A large part of its membership is made up of “living historians,” men and women who enjoy reenacting various eras in the nation’s history. The group also has non-historian members who, through contributions of time or funds, help restore and maintain this historic site for the public’s enjoyment. Membership is open to all adults.
