Lumina Foundation for Education has awarded a grant to the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University to establish a fellowship program for students earning a Ph.D. in Philanthropic Studies.


The funding will support for three years two fellows focused either on research in philanthropy and higher education or on research related to private foundations. The two fellowships will provide opportunities in which respected scholars guide exceptional, creative minds to a new level of intellectual growth and will heighten their future contributions to academia and to nonprofit professionals’ work.


“We are grateful to Lumina Foundation for their generous underwriting of these fellowships,” said Gene Tempel, executive director of the Center on Philanthropy. “They will make a huge difference financially to our students, and enable them to do important research to advance the field. This support will enhance our ability to attract the best students to this unique doctoral program.”
