Investing in Making Indianapolis the Nation’s Premier Destination for Innovation in Education

The Mind Trust is committed to transforming Indianapolis into an epicenter of education innovation.  To that end, The Mind Trust created a Venture Fund to help it recruit to Indianapolis the nation’s leading entrepreneurial educational organizations with established track records of extraordinary results in other cities.

The Mind Trust has already invested nearly $2.9 million of its Venture Fund to recruit three exceptional organizations to work in Indianapolis: Teach For America, The New Teacher Project, and College Summit. Efforts are underway to expand these programs in Indianapolis and recruit other highly successful entrepreneurial education organizations.
