  1. It would be interesting to see a report on the local DAFs and to what extent these issues might be reflected w/ central Indiana’s philanthropies.

  2. According to its website, the Indianapolis Community Foundation manages the following DAFs:

    EFROYMSON FAMILY FUND
    Established by Dan and Lori Efroymson, The Efroymson Family Fund supports efforts to promote the viability of Indianapolis. It has awarded more than $118 million in grants to date.

    THOMAS P. AND SONDRA D. SHEEHAN CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
    The Thomas P. and Sondra D. Sheehan Charitable Foundation focuses on improving the lives of children facing debilitating medical challenges.

    CROSSER FAMILY FOUNDATION
    The Crosser Family Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of youth and their families in our communities by providing them with everyday needs and opportunity.

    GLICK FUND
    Glick Fund was established by Gene and Marilyn Glick in 1998. Today, members of the Glick family and the Gene B. Glick Company continue their tradition of generosity.

    THE HERBERT SIMON FAMILY FOUNDATION
    The Herbert Simon Family Foundation has been promoting social justice and providing support for organizations across the U.S. and around the world since 1999.
