Central Indiana Senior Fund

Since its inception in 2005, Central Indiana Senior Fund (CISF), a fund of CICF, has awarded more than $15 million to approximately 150 senior-serving or senior-focused nonprofits and programs in Central Indiana.

CISF’s mission is to support programs and opportunities for low-to-moderate-income older adults (ages 55 and older) with a focus on under-served or isolated populations. In addition to grantmaking, CISF has contracted The Polis Center to explore the data necessary to identify the unique and diverse needs of older adults in Central Indiana through the development of the State of Aging Report.

$15M+ awarded since 2005

State of Aging Report

Research shows that older adults are the fastest-growing demographic in Central Indiana, as approximately 24,000 adults turn 55 and 22,000 turn 60 each year. By the year 2030, one in every five Hoosiers will be over the age of 65. To enhance the ability of older adults to live and thrive in Central Indiana, it is important to understand the population trends, notable changes, and basic needs of this growing demographic.
