A Few Accomplishments

Veterans Memorial

The Trumbull 100 spearheaded the construction of the Trumbull County Vererans' Memorial. Several Trumbull 100 members served on the project's
oversight committee. Various local businesses, community groups and area construction unions spent many volunteer hours and donated in-kind services to complete this project. Nearly $500,000 was raised through the sale of bricks (nearly 3,000), pavers (over 500) and sponsorships to purchase the bronze WWII statue and building materials to complete the project. The memorial was dedicated on November 11, 2008 and stands in doentown Warren to honor all veterans.

June 2010 - Burbank Park

The Burbank Park renovation project was completed with over $140,000 in goods and services contributed from many sources including the Warren Athletic League, Mahoning Valley Scrappers and Trumbull 100. The park is located on the northwest side of Warren. Bill Casey led the charge to return Burbank Park to its original form. He called the park
“a gem” now that renovations are finished. Work on the concession stand and four baseball fields began in 2008 and was finished in June, 2010. Security cameras have been installed and vandalism has been halted. Over 500 children from all over Trumbull County regularly play in the park and a statewide baseball tournament was held in the park.

A Few words from the President

Ned Gold, President

As President of Trumbull 100, I welcome you to our web site. “One Hundred for the future of Trumbull County” is our official name. We are known simply as “ Trumbull 100".
Our goal is to bring together 100 Trumbull County citizens from all aspects of the community to work for the betterment of all Trumbull County. Our mission is: “To embrace and facilitate opportunities by providing resources and leadership to projects that enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Trumbull County”.

The key word in that statement is “Facilitate”. We “facilitate opportunities” for the enhancement of the “quality of life”. We provide leadership for appropriate projects. While we might provide funding for projects, it is, with a few exceptions, always included with other forms of facilitation such as leadership, advice or raw human power.

It is important to know what we are not. We are not a foundation! We do not simply hand out funds except in limited instances where funding will spur leadership and self-help for the building of the Trumbull County community. An example of an exception to our funding policy is our mini-grant program where we offer neighborhood non-profit groups funding for specific neighborhood projects.

We are continuously looking for ways to better our community within our resources. We welcome your thoughts.
