About
Glenn & Jane Fausz
Co-Chairs of the Fausz Family Foundation
Jane and Glenn have lived most of their lives in Northwest Ohio. They met at University of Toledo in 1966, fell in love, and married in 1968. After Glenn completed his Bachelor of Science Degree at Adrian College, he earned his D.D.S. degree at The Ohio State University College of Dentistry in 1974, while Jane received her PHTC degree in 1974.
While Jane was at home raising their children, Glenn provided dental care for his patients at his two locations: one in Toledo, Ohio, and the other in Delta, Ohio. After 43 years of practicing dentistry, Glenn retired in 2017. They have been blessed with three children and seven grandchildren whose many sporting, theater, and musical events keep them busy most weeks. They currently attend Five Lakes Church in Sylvania, Ohio with their family.
Glenn decided in the spring of 2018 to establish and fund the Fausz Family Foundation. The idea of giving back to others is the driving force behind their foundation. We carefully select the recipients of our donations primarily, but not exclusively, from the Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan area. The recipients are all 501(c)(3) charities that have low cost administrative expenses and whose donations benefit those in need. Jane and Glenn are co-chairs of The Glenn and Jane Fausz Family Foundation, a 501(c)(3) lRS tax exempt charity.
After 53 years of marriage in June 2021, Glenn and Jane hope to have many more years together to see the fruits of their hard work help others in need.

Fausz Family Foundation Donor Advisory Board
Blaine & Jeanette Marston
Blaine and Jeanette Marston have been Sylvania area residents since 1986, when they moved from the Detroit, Michigan, area to open an independent used car dealership in West Toledo.
Blaine has been involved in a variety of roles in the automotive industry for his entire professional career and has been with the Yark Automotive Group for 12 years. Jeanette is on the office staff of a local physician. Since arriving in the area, they have been deeply involved in faith communities at St. Elias & St. Joseph Church, and for the past 15 years have been members at McCord Rd/Five Lakes Church in Sylvania, where Blaine serves as an usher on the Connections Team.
The Marston family believes that we each have a responsibility to use the talents that God has given us to help others and to repay for the blessings that He has provided for us. They prefer to help others locally, quietly and out of the limelight. They believe that the best way to help others is to offer a “Hand up, but not a handout.” For directed giving, they prefer to help organizations whose approach is one of concern for the people being helped and not the financial welfare of the executive and management teams. In that spirit, they researched and nominated the Family House in Toledo for assistance from the Fausz Family Foundation.

Rick Napierala was born on Christmas Eve, 1953 in Toledo, Ohio. He attended Rogers High School and then went on to earn an Associate’s Degree from the University of Toledo.

He enjoys music and has sung with the Toledo Choral Society for many years, at times sharing his beautiful solo voice. Rick formerly holds the office of President for the Choral Society, which has benefited from his hard work and organizational skills.
Growing up his parents taught Rick and his siblings to love God, respect others, help them when they are in need, and to also respect their country. The lessons learned have remained with Rick, and he is always willing to go the extra mile to lend a helping hand to those less fortunate. The Fausz Family Foundation has been an incredible platform to help continue that mission.
