Welcome to Connections,
the new web-based quarterly newsletter of the Nina Mason Pulliam
Charitable Trust. It has been a few months more than five years
ago when I stood alone in front of highly inquisitive audiences
of 250 to 300 nonprofit leaders and development officers in
Indianapolis and Phoenix who were eager to know how the Trust
was going to conduct business in Indiana and Arizona. Our grants
program staff did not yet exist in either of our offices and
there were no employees hired yet in Phoenix.

Our newsletter is appropriately named
Connections. As the name implies, the newsletter is not only
a way to demonstrate the connection between our grantmaking
in Arizona and Indiana, but also a way to connect the Nina Mason
Pulliam Charitable Trust with you.

the Nina Mason Pulliam Legacy Scholars program to open doors
