AS A RESIDENT here and community advocate for 42 years, Carol Abrams can appreciate Evansville Living’s mission to reflect slices of life in the River City.
Carol and her husband, Howard, ran the DeJong’s department stores in Evansville and have then been involved in many local causes, such as CYPRESS, which uses lessons of the Holocaust as inspiration to produce programs for schools and the rest of the community that promote understanding and acceptance.
The Abramses have read Evansville Living for its entire 25-year history. Carol says one reason she enjoys the magazine is because it shows Evansville in an inclusive light. She describes Evansville Living as “a tremendous asset to the community.”
“It’s extremely useful for realtors because they deal with a lot of people moving here,” she says. “It presents the city in an interesting and diverse way, and you think, wow, there is a lot more to the city than I thought.”
