Rotarian and Rotary Board Director, Rick Alvis was recently recognized by the City-Council of Indianapolis for twenty years of service to the Wheeler Mission Ministries and the City of Indianapolis.

Wheeler Mission Ministries is a non-denominational, Christian, social services organization, which provides critically needed goods and services to homeless, poor, and needy of central Indiana without regard to race, color, creed, national origin or religion.

Wheeler is not a church, but does cooperate with many different churches that are concerned about poverty and homelessness in the inner city.

Founded in 1893, Wheeler is the oldest continuously operating ministry of its kind in the state of Indiana.

With five locations, dozens of ministries, a budget of $6.2 million, and about 130 employees, Wheeler is also the largest and most diverse ministry of its kind in the state.
