Michael C. Mayse, executive director of Big Brothers Big Sisters
of Greater Cleveland, has been named the 2002 winner of the Thomas
B. Schneider Memorial Fellowship in Nonprofit Management.
The fellowship provides full tuition for part-time study toward
the master of nonprofit organizations (MNO) degree at Case Western
Reserve University's Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations.
Mayse joins Danny Williams, former general counsel and major
metro executive of the Ohio Division of the American Cancer Society,
who received the 2001 fellowship.
The Schneider Memorial Fellowship was established to honor the
late Thomas B. Schneider, a prominent Cleveland attorney and adviser
to many local foundations. Schneider was an executive at Ameritrust
who played a major role in the community, largely through his
work with United Way. As a lasting legacy, his family and friends
established a scholarship in his name, which would continue his
work in the community.
To be considered for the fellowship, an individual must be a
senior manager of a United Way Services-affiliated agency; must
have qualified for admission to the MNO program at CWRU; and must
provide evidence of experience, commitment and potential for continued
leadership in nonprofit management. Winners are selected by representatives
from the Mandel Center, United Way Services and the Schneider
family.
