Closures named: Big Brothers Big Sisters, June 2025 — and no Osceola-seated closure in the record

The twelfth item names the current cycle's closure, and it was tested first-hand, as the register ordered, before anything was printed. Big Brothers Big Sisters of St. Joseph County — in its final form Big Brothers Big Sisters Southern Lake Michigan Region, renamed January 1, 2020 after acquiring the Lower West Michigan agency (its audited financials, 2019/2020) — closed in June 2025. The South Bend Tribune's account (Rayleigh Deaton; photographs dated August 27, 2025) is the first-hand record: the agency "shuttered its doors after 57 years because of challenges stemming from the pandemic," leaving some 300 children on its waiting list at the end, on the word of Katie Craft, its director of programs for its last four and a half years. Its South Bend directory records (105 East Jefferson Boulevard, Suite 305; 218 West Washington Street, Suite 710) now read "Permanently Closed." A successor stands at pointer size: Craft went on to found Resonant Vibe, a mentorship and advocacy organization serving St. Joseph and Elkhart counties, out of the closure. The closure is printed at boundary size and at its true address: BBBS was a county and regional seat in South Bend, not an Osceola seat — it is the current-cycle closure that touches this ground, because the matches and the waiting list it ended were the county's, this township's children among them.

For an Osceola-seated closure, the register and press tests were run together: the IRS register read whole in this history (73 organizations) carries no Form 990 termination on this ground in the current cycle that the searches reached, and no Tribune closure record for an Osceola-seated agency was returned. No Osceola-seated agency closure was found — printed at search strength, with the register's own open course (the Lions Club line, GAP-O10-C3) standing where this history left it. The county's other great closure of the cycle, Portage Manor's discharge end on July 31, 2023, is told in this section's poor-relief article and cross-referenced here rather than re-told: between them, the county home (2023) and the mentoring agency (2025) are the closures that bound this township's charity record in the current cycle, and both are now in print at their sizes.
