Fort Wayne Sister Cities International

...works to promote international understanding between the residents of Fort Wayne and the citizens of our Sister Cities through regular and frequent exchanges of people, information and ideas. These exchanges provide valuable resources to schools, businesses, and local government. 

Established in 1976 and organized in 1983 as an Indiana corporation, FWSCI, a 501(c)(3) Corporation, is affiliated with Sister Cities International, headquartered in Washington, D.C.

Takaoka, Japan; Gera, Germany; and Plock, Poland are our sister cities. Click through to meet leaders, students and citizens of these beautiful cities.

We wish to thank the City of Fort Wayne and Mayor
Graham A. Richard for their significant support in
staff, funds and other resources to enable FWSCI to
link Fort Wayne with our sister communities.  Over the
years Mayors Robert Armstrong, Winfield Moses and Paul
Helmke, along with Mayor Richard, have worked to build
international links.  Their ongoing support of FWSCI
is a key part of that effort.
