On January 5, Ohio Business Week Foundation
founder Ron Nischwitz was inducted into the
American Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame.
The ceremony, which took place in Orlando, Florida,
was part of the American Baseball Coaches

organizes more than 5,700 coaches and nationally
recognizes outstanding achievements.
While at The Ohio State University, Nischwitz led the
university in strikeouts and innings pitched

three years with the Detroit Tigers and one year with
the Cleveland Indians, and, after retirement, coached
The Wright State Raiders to nearly 870 victories. In

He founded the Ohio Business Week
Foundation in 1988 and continues to strongly support
the program.

Eighty-three percent of Americans gave to charities
in 2006, according to a December 2006 Wall Street
Journal Online Harris Interactive Personal Finance
Poll.
The survey asked 2,939 respondents to choose their
top reasons for giving. More than half of the
respondents believe their contributions will make an
impact and 76 percent gave aid because they believe
in the cause.
