Foundation: Lumina Foundation, Lilly Endowment
"We want to imbue the individuals who graduate from our program with a lot of knowledge and wisdom," says John M.
Mutz, founder and president of the Mutz Institute for Philanthropic Leadership.
"But more importantly, what we want to do is build a fire under philanthropy, and under government, and under business in this state so we can be better than we are."
Mutz, an Indiana native who was president of the Lilly Endowment and later served as the 45th governor of the state, founded the institute more than 30 years ago, the Indianapolis Star reports.
Its 22nd class includes Clarice Cummings, executive director of the Genesis: to Success program in Batesville, Indiana.
"It is imperative that Indiana cultivates a generation of sharp leaders ready to forge significant advancements in critical sectors such as education and economic development," says Mutz, who is also the president and CEO of the Lumina Foundation, the largest association supporting effective philanthropy in the state.
The class meets once a month from January to October.
