The Fellow Ship Bus

The Fellow Ship Bus
By 1977, the East End Neighborhood House acquired their own bus to help with transportation for their programs, entitled the Fellow Ship. Court Morey won the contest that was promoted by the East End Neighborhood House for the naming of the bus. He was congratulated by a councilman, David Strand, and the board president, Ray Sawyer. A bottle of champagne was broken to celebrate the event that would allow the group to reach a greater number of individuals in the community. The acquisition of a bus was an important event that demonstrated a growing need for Cleveland settlement houses. The West Side Community House acquired their school bus in 1961 to help with their daycare services, and Hiram House gained their bus by 1946 to help with their camps and many programs for children.
