Krasl Arts Center Community Exceeds Goal for Upton Foundation Matching Grant

Funds will support educational programming for the arts
[St. Joseph, MICH., January 12, 2026] - The Krasl Art Center exceeded its goal of raising $20,000 to support its education programs through the generosity of community members and friends. The annual appeal closes the center’s third year of meeting this goal, doubled in value through a matching grant from Frederick S. Upton Foundation.

“We are deeply grateful for the generosity the Upton Foundation and our many friends have shown toward our mission, especially now,” said Tami Fauver, executive director and chief curator. “To have surpassed our goal reflects our community’s commitment to providing a dynamic arts education for all. These gifts strengthen our endeavors and align with our ambitious vision for the year ahead.”

Krasl Art Center’s education programs range from tuition-based studio classes to public events and community partnerships. A common philosophy unites these programs, emphasizing four core strategies: creating an inclusive and supportive learning environment, providing student-centered learning, connecting art to life, and affirming process over product.

In 2025, the Krasl Art Center served more than 1,054 students through 113 camps, classes and workshops. It provided 76 scholarships, and an additional 19 scholarships through the Arianne Baker Memorial Fund.

SCAM ALERT-watch for suspects impersonating celebrities

The Van Buren County Sheriff’s Office is warning residents about an ongoing increase in online scams in which suspects impersonate celebrities to trick victims into sending money or gift cards.

In these scams, offenders commonly contact victims through social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, or messaging apps. The suspect may claim to be a well-known celebrity or a representative of that celebrity and build trust with the victim over time. Once trust is established, the suspect requests money, gift cards, or other financial assistance, often citing emergencies, exclusive opportunities, or private communications.

The Van Buren County Sheriff’s Office emphasizes that legitimate celebrities will never ask individuals for money, gift cards, or financial favors through social media or online messaging platforms.
Residents are urged to remain cautious and watch for common warning signs, including:
• Requests for payment using gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers
• Messages claiming secrecy or urging immediate action
• Requests to move conversations to private messaging apps
• Poor grammar, spelling errors, or suspicious profile details
•
If you believe you are being targeted or have already sent money, contact your local law enforcement agency immediately. Reporting these incidents promptly can help prevent others from becoming victims and assist investigators in identifying scam patterns.

Benton Harbor Department of Public Safety to Bolster Pre-Incident Planning Efforts with FM Fire Service Grant

Benton Harbor, Michigan— he Benton Harbor Department of Public Safety has received a US$5,000 fire service grant from FM, one of the world’s largest commercial property insurers.

Because fire remains the leading cause of property damage worldwide, FM has contributed millions of dollars in grants to fire service organizations around the globe for nearly 50 years.

“At FM, we strongly believe the majority of property damage is preventable, not inevitable,” said Michael Spaziani, assistant vice president – manager of the fire service grant program. “Far too often, inadequate budgets prevent the organizations working to prevent fires from being as proactive as they would like. With additional financial support, grant recipients are actively helping to improve property risk in the communities they serve.”

Through its Fire Service Grant Program, FM awards grants to fire departments—as well as national, state, regional, local and community organizations worldwide—that best demonstrate a need for funding, where dollars can have the most demonstrable impact on helping organizations better prepare for emergency incidents, ultimately enhancing safety and resilience in the community.

To learn more about FM’s Fire Service Grant Program and other resources for the fire service, please visit www.fm.com/fireservice.

Established nearly two centuries ago, FM is a mutual insurance company whose capital, scientific research capability and engineering expertise are solely dedicated to property risk management and the resilience of its policyholder-owners. These owners, who share the belief that the majority of property loss is preventable, represent many of the world’s largest organizations, including one of every four Fortune 500 companies. They work with FM to better understand the hazards that can impact their business continuity in order to make cost-effective risk management decisions, combining property loss prevention with insurance protection.
