At the Sagamore Institute we value innovative ideas, that are put into action, with lasting results. We are highlighting those Indiana citizens who have enriched our communities through their innovation, investment, and hard work. By sharing their stories, we aim to encourage all people of Indiana to put their gifts and talents into action as we each consider how we can make not only our local communities, but also our state, better.

Indiana Citizen Profiles

Sagamore Institute hosted the inaugural Indiana Conference on Citizenship on Monday, November 23rd, 2015. We think that active citizens are the key to lasting local and national change for the better; change doesn’t just happen through top-down policies, but through the involvement of individual community members. Those citizens who have made the greatest impact are those who have tapped into their gifts and resources and are making strides to creatively approach the problems in their communities.
