About Arlene Walter
Arlene B. Walter, was a life-long resident of Green Bay, and the daughter of Byron L. Walter and Minnie Walter. Miss Walter's father was a prominent businessman who made the family fortune in hardware and other ventures here and in Door County. Miss Walter lived simply and, in the early 1970s toward the end of her life, entrusted dispersal of the family estate to Attorney Fred Will. Acting on her behalf, Mr. Will made gifts from the Arlene Walter Trust to fund scholarships for UW-Green Bay students, construction of the University Ecumenical Center (now called the Mauthe Center), and challenge grants which led to the construction of campus residence halls.
A score of community organizations also benefited from the Walter legacy, including the Boys and Girls Club, Girl Scouts, the Brown County Library, Community Service Center, Green Bay Symphony Orchestra, Heritage Hill Foundation, Neville Public Museum, Scholarships Inc., the YMCA and Green Bay-De Pere YWCA.
