Spirit of Philanthropy Award
Each year a Spirit of Philanthropy celebration is hosted by the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus, the IU Foundation, and the Center on Philanthropy to recognize recipients for their financial support and volunteer services. University academic and service programs nominate honorees from the external community. The Spirit of Philanthropy awards are presented to individuals, corporations, and foundations that have provided support for university programs through their gifts and their service.
