IU Day is an opportunity to celebrate those who inspire us to do our best work at Indiana University. Engage with us as we honor alumni who share their time, talents, and treasure as they connect with and educate diverse IU students.
Affinity-giving circles enable a committed group of individuals to collectively invest their time, talent, and money and to decide—together—the future direction of the circle and the allocation of its funds.
