26th Annual Gala Celebration
Supporting Scholarships for Indiana University Northwest
Indiana University Northwest’s Annual Gala celebration began 26 years ago for the purpose of raising scholarship gifts for students. Over the past three decades, proceeds from the Gala have supported students who have financial need as they work to achieve their academic goals. Over the years, alumni, donors and friends also have been honored at the Gala for contributing to IU Northwest’s scholarships and programs.
The Northwest campus’s student population is 6,100 and growing. Currently, about 10 percent of our students receive scholarships funded by the Gala, endowed scholarship funds, and the Northwest campus. But more than 50 percent of our students have financial need. More scholarship gifts are needed, and YOU can help to increase the number of scholarships that we are able to offer.
Please join us at our 26th Annual Gala on the evening of THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2012, at the Avalon Banquet Center in Merrillville, Indiana. Enjoy a lovely evening of fine food and camaraderie with fellow donors, alumni and friends of the University.
If you have questions about purchasing tickets for, or underwriting, the Gala, or about scholarship gifts, please call the Office of Development at (219) 980-6801.
