Development Council
 
 
  David Pierre - Chairman
Energizer Personal Care
"I have been so moved by the many ways the Jones Center for Families can make a change in a person's life: community health & wellness classes, educational enrichment opportunities, Teen LIFE programs, Kids LIFE programs, activities for seniors, skating, swimming, concerts.  To offer so many incredible life-changing opportunities and to do so for free is truly unique to any area of the country.  The Jones Center's mission to serve families, strengthen community and to glorify God...all are welcome as long as you behave as ladies and gentlemen.  A very small price to pay indeed."
  Celia Swanson-Vice Chair
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.

“Serving on the Jones Center Development Council is a great privilege and honor.  The example of community giving set by Harvey and Bernice Jones is second to none.  It’s important for all of us to give back to our community, and for me, there is no better organization in NWA to be involved with than the Jones Center for Families.”
  Jay Ellis , Edy's Grand Ice Cream

"Wholesome values, honesty, integrity and a family atmosphere can be found on television with the "Leave it to Beaver" show.....but it exists in real life at the Jones Center For Families in Springdale.  We are so blessed in this community to have had the seeds of this Center sown through the generousity of Harvey and Bernice Jones.   Now it continues
to reach out to thousands through the heartfelt efforts of the community it serves!"

  Christine Meier, Canvas Corp

“Serving on the Development Council since the inception has been an honor.  I have the opportunity to give back to the center through this council and do what I can to help continue the mission that Bernice set for the center and for the community.”

Jeff Newman, Senior Vice President Purchasing & Merchandising, National Home Centers, Inc.
"Harvey & Bernice Jones’ vision & dream of building “The Jones Center” for all of Northwest Arkansas to use for free, to help keep each of us physically & mentally fit, is a dream come true for me. Anyone that comes here has to be amazed at this place! Especially when they know that the Jones family did it for all of us FOR FREE!  We all surely know that to keep their dream & vision alive, those of us that have prospered by living in Northwest Arkansas must do our part to help support this wonderful facility. It is a very small price to pay to be able to have something that any other community would love to have! Let’s keep Harvey & Bernice’s dream & Vision alive forever!"

  Patrick Swope, Executive Vice President/ Chief Operating Officer, Legacy National Bank
"I support the Jones Center and its mission because of the opportunities and facilities the center provides to the families of our community that otherwise they may not have access to.  It is also an honor to be a part of continuing the Legacy that Harvey and Bernice Jones left us."
  Buddy Wray, retired, Tyson Foods

"I like to see those who could not find or afford the things the center has to offer be able to enjoy them. We are very fortunate to have such a facility in NWA, one that to my knowledge is not duplicated anywhere in the world. I thank the Jones family for this and want to do what I can to see this community in a community last forever."

 

  Kristina Young, Customer Marketing Manager, Abbott Nutrition
"The Jones Center for Families has played a huge role in improving the quality of life for families in Northwest Arkansas.  When I think about the resources that are being provided to the community at no cost...things like parenting classes, senior citizen activities, and spring break week...it is just overwhelming.  My daughter is a member of the Ozark Figure Skating Club, so I know how lucky we are to have the ice arena here.  If you really think about the difference that the Jones Center is making in our community, it's impossible not to put your heart and soul into the cause."
  Kelly Kemp- Chief Advancement Officer, Jones Center for Families
  Dr. Joel Carver- Trustee
