The Purdue for Life Foundation has launched a new division, led by Jacqueline M. Gatson, in support of Purdue University’s diversity, inclusion, and belonging priorities and its Purdue Next Moves initiatives.
Purdue University has received a $10 million commitment from Gerald (CE’64, MBA’71) and Nanette Lyles for unrestricted support of the Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business. The commitment represents the latest in a long history of giving for the Lyles family, which can trace its Purdue ties back to Gerald’s maternal grandfather, who was both a student and a professor at the university.
A $5 million grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. will provide continued support during the next three years for the work Purdue University’s Military Family Research Institute (MFRI) does to improve the lives of military families and veterans. The grant will help MFRI enhance its robust support networks.
