The Impact of Your Gift

Because of your support, the University of Indianapolis can offer critical scholarships for deserving students in need and provide the personal support that helps them succeed. Your gift to the UIndy Fund  plays a significant role in allowing students like Emma '24 to pursue their passions at UIndy.

Below, read how Emma became a leader in the Student Business Leadership Academy and applied her project management skills through an internship at Amazon.

Give the Gift of opportunity

 

I love to analyze numbers. I know that’s not an engaging way to start a conversation, but I find data fascinating. I like to use the information I gather to solve complex problems, streamline processes, and design strategies for efficiency. At the University of Indianapolis, I’m grateful for the opportunities I’ve received to develop my passion. These experiences would not have been possible without the generous gifts from alumni and friends.

When deciding where to attend college, UIndy checked all the boxes for me. I was excited to join their School of Business, compete on the track and field team, and receive a generous scholarship. I have two siblings, so receiving financial aid was very important to me and my family. It has allowed me more time to sharpen my skills through student organizations and internships.

UIndy faculty and staff have always challenged me to be my best and provided opportunities for growth. With their guidance I’ve learned how to balance a busy schedule as a student-athlete, become a leader in the Student Business Leadership Academy, and apply my project management knowledge through an internship at Amazon!

As a senior, I am grateful that I can soon pursue a career that I love in operations and supply chain management. Thanks to generous alumni and friends, I have an education that will open up doors for my future. Today, I hope you will consider supporting students like me with a gift to the UIndy Fund. Your generosity will provide similar opportunities for future Greyhounds.

Emma, Class of 2024
