The Community Foundation of St. Joseph County this week told New Day Intake Center officials they'll provide $250,000 toward the $14.3 million needed to break ground this summer.

The South Bend Common Council voted Monday night to approve a rezoning that will make way for the New Day Intake Center to address homelessness in the region.
