Responding
to the Need
Inspired by the critical need for values-based education, Rose Schaffer and
Bernadette Vetter founded The Center for Learning in 1970 to empower teachers
to provide the total educational experience-social, intellectual, and moral
development of youth.
Believing in values-based education, The Sisters of the Humility of Mary and an
ecumenical group of business and professional leaders from Ohio and
Pennsylvania sponsored The Center for Learning. The donated time and expertise
of these cofounders included the legal services of Atty. Myron J. Nadler,
Youngstown, Ohio; the solid banking practices of Charles Foley and Harold
VanHuffel, Warren, Ohio; the expertise of L. C. Michelon, President, Republic
Education Institute, Cleveland, Ohio; the support and enthusiasm of Rose
Ambrosia who led the Pennsylvania representatives; and the sustaining
leadership of trustees and officers.

| The expansion of
The Center for Learning's mission into the arena of teacher training and
enrichment was made possible through the establishment of an Endowment Fund in
1990 by the Board of Trustees. The Center is also actively recruiting area
representatives to help facilitate teacher networking.
