Benefiting: The I-Fund's Leadership Scholarship Fund

For over 58 years the Independent College Fund of Maryland (the I-Fund) has created partnerships between the private sector and the state’s independent colleges to ensure a balanced system of higher education that produces quality minds for Maryland’s future.

Each year The I-Fund commemorates these partnerships with an "Evening of Excellence."
The dinner honors individuals and organizations who support the efforts of the I-Fund. The event recognizes an outstanding businessperson who embodies the values of independent liberal arts education and whose activities in the community exhibit a commitment to higher education. This individual receives The I-Fund Board of Directors Leadership Award.
