Exceptional community leadership and professionalism among Indianapolis’ lawyers is recognized through the Foundation's Distinguished Fellows program, which was formed in 1982. Each year, a limited number of attorneys are selected for recognition and demonstrate their commitment to the community with a gift to the endowment. The Foundation's ongoing grants and programs are maintained solely through the generosity and energy of its directors, fellows and donors.
