Donor Fund Story:
P.U.L.S.E. was started in 1994 through the Dekko Foundation and was created and facilitated by Linda Speakman-Yerick, the very first youth pod in northeast Indiana. It’s a youth-led organization that works to spread philanthropy throughout Noble County. P.U.L.S.E. stands for Philanthropists Utilizing Life-long Service and Education.
Dave Knopp served with passion as the Executive Director of the Community Foundation of Noble County from 2000 until his passing in 2008. He was deeply involved in the community, especially with P.U.L.S.E. of Noble County. Mr. Knopp’s exceptional leadership and dedication as the group’s navigator were evident throughout his tenure.
In recognition of Dave Knopp’s lasting influence, P.U.L.S.E. named their endowment fund in his honor. This fund is essential for sustaining P.U.L.S.E.’s operational budget, enabling the group to continue educating and inspiring young philanthropists and supporting charitable initiatives.
As of 2023, P.U.L.S.E. of Noble County is made up of 22 dedicated students from East Noble, Central Noble, and West Noble Schools, ranging from 8th to 12th grade. These students are committed to promoting the significance of philanthropy and contributing to meaningful charities and projects through grantmaking and community service.
Under Dave Knopp’s guidance for many years, P.U.L.S.E. flourished, leaving an enduring impact on the organization. His unwavering dedication and willingness to go above and beyond were instrumental in shaping the group’s ethos.
In tribute to Dave Knopp’s enduring legacy, P.U.L.S.E. named their endowment fund after him. This fund is critical in sustaining P.U.L.S.E.’s operations, ensuring its continued efforts in philanthropy education and charitable support.
The students of P.U.L.S.E. are dedicated to fundraising for and contributing to this endowment. Their strong belief in community support drives them to make a tangible difference.
