INDIANAPOLIS Nineteen organizations are receiving funds to preserve African American landmarks across Indiana thanks to two funds honoring a former Eli Lilly chemist.
Standiford Stan Cox became Eli Lilly s first Black chemist when he joined the company in 1957. Cox was an advocate for the preservation of African American heritage sites. He died in February 2019, but during his lifetime, he established two funds with the Central Indiana Community Foundation one in his name and one to honor his parents.
