Since 1944, UNCF has helped more than 430,000 students earn undergraduate and graduate degrees, including those from Indiana. UNCF is an organization that I truly believe is making a difference in the lives of the students it supports, and this year s event will honor and celebrate UNCF s longstanding commitment to promoting access to higher education. Consistent with our commitment to education and a diverse workforce, once again Eli Lilly and Company is pleased to support UNCF and its mission.
