Westfield Library Foundation Recruits New Board Member

OneZone Chamber of Commerce President Jack Russell has joined the Westfield Library Foundation as a new board member. He started his term this month.

The Westfield Library Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose focus is building proactive community partnerships and driving financial support for the Westfield Washington Public Library through major gifts, bequests, corporate sponsorships, naming rights, and private donations.

“Jack is a devoted advocate for Westfield businesses,” said Foundation Executive Director Erin Downey. “His networking and leadership skills will help connect our business community to the opportunities that await them at the library as it expands to meet the changing needs of our growing community.”

OneZone was created as a result of a 2015 merger between the Fishers and Carmel Chambers of Commerce. A Hamilton County native, Russell acts as a business advocate for the membership organization’s 1,300 members.

“The Westfield Washington Library holds a special place in my heart,” Russell said.

“It’s a place my wife and two boys visit each week. We love the Westfield community, and I am honored to be a part of the Foundation’s board.”
