Lake Institute on Faith & Giving fosters a deeper understanding of the dynamic relationship between faith and giving through research, education, and public conversation.
As part of the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Lake Institute serves as a trusted bridge between research and practice, across religious traditions and institutions, and within philanthropic practices both old and new. Through this work, Lake conducts and translates research, equips leaders through courses and resources, and convenes partners to strengthen the practice of generosity encouraging deeper dialogue at the intersection of faith and giving across traditions and communities.
Lake Institute also produces Insights, a bi-weekly e-newsletter for the religious community and fundraisers of faith-based organizations.
