Cynthia (Cyndi) Berner

Cyndi received degrees from Cottey College (AA), University of Kansas (BA), and the University of Denver (MALS) and worked for nearly 40 years for the City of Wichita. She served as the City Director of Libraries for 20 years, during which time she oversaw the construction and opening of the Advanced Learning Library. Cyndi retired in 2020.

Cyndi is currently involved as a community volunteer with the First Presbyterian Church Foundation, Friends & Foundation of the Goddard Public Library, and the City of Wichita Cultural Funding Committee.

Cyndi has been a supporter of Legacy’s Harvest Shares program and joined the Legacy Board in 2022, because, in her words: “From the moment I was introduced to Legacy Ministries, I knew this was an organization making an important difference in our community. It is a joy to watch the youth grow in confidence as they gain skills and support that will open the doors of opportunity for them as they enter adulthood.”
