Hoosier Philanthropy: A Panel on the History of Giving in Indiana

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Hoosier Philanthropy: A Panel on the History of Giving in Indiana will now be held virtually.

Join us for a virtual panel discussion to dive into the history of philanthropy in Indiana, the historic Hoosier philanthropists, and how Hoosiers of all economic backgrounds have participated in philanthropy.

Drawing on research from their recent publication, Hoosier Philanthropy: The History of Giving, panelists will share their insights into the values and principles of giving Hoosiers hold dear.

Free for IHS Members, $5 for the general public. Once registration is complete, attendees will receive a link to the zoom meeting prior to the event.
