INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Lumina Foundation has released the first grants from a $15 million Racial Justice and Equity Fund to national and Indianapolis-based organizations that focus on eradicating systemic racism in fields that align with or complement the foundation s work. In the wake of George Floyd s brutal death in police custody last year, Lumina reaffirmed our commitment to the Racial Justice and Equity Fund and pledged to support efforts to dismantle systemic racism, said Danette Howard, senior vice president and chief policy officer at Lumina. Some projects are focused on post high-school education, but others will address different aspects of racial inequity.
