WDC DONATES
TO PATTERSON LIBRARY
Westfield Development
Corporation’s Education Committee has been created to provide business
educational resources to the community. A recently completed project involved a
$1,000 gift to the library to purchase up-to-date books, videos, periodicals
and compact discs for the yet to be named community business resource
center. Debbie Williams acted as
advisor to the committee. She is in the
process of ordering the new materials and also hopes to add two additional Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation computers.
The aim of both the library and WDC is to make business information
accessible at the local level. A
reception and business seminar are planned to inaugurate the new business
center. Other projects in the works for
the WDC Education Committee are:
q
q
Volunteering in Junior Achievement business education programs in the
second and eighth grades at Westfield Academy and central School.
q
q
Offering IKON business software training classes at Welch’s to the
public on a limited basis.
q
q
Working with the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce to bring more
business seminars to Westfield.
q
q
Creating a database of conference rooms at local businesses that are
suitable for business training sessions and meetings.
WDC’s goal is to put Westfield on
the cutting edge of environmentally friendly business development in the county
and beyond.
