About IIMA Endowment Fund
In 2020, a group of like-minded alumni from IIMA came together to start the IIMA Endowment Fund (IIMA EF), in a first of its kind initiative for a B-school in India. Endowments are very popular globally and most of the leading business schools in the world have billions of dollars in their endowments, powered by their alumni. IIMA EF has been set up to recognize the contributions made by our alumni, and to help create a formal, well governed and professionally run structure through which they can give back to IIMA.
Since the integration with the erstwhile Development Office in June 2021, IIMA EF is now IIMA’s unified fundraising and philanthropic arm for all contributions made to the Institute (alumni, corporate, CSR, multilateral agencies etc). The team takes care of functions such as raising funds, facilitating deployment, managing donor relations and supporting the Institute in donor reporting & documentation.
