The Experiential Learning Fund empowers O'Neill students across all disciplines—and on both the Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses—to engage in transformative opportunities that prepare them to lead with purpose and impact. By removing financial barriers, the fund opens doors to internships, study abroad, and leadership experiences that shape future changemakers.

Through hands-on, real-world learning, students gain the skills and confidence to navigate complex challenges and make meaningful contributions in their fields. Support from the fund provides access to immersive experiences where students live, work, and learn in professional environments before graduation, gaining practical experience while building valuable professional connections. Funding may also support participation in conferences, summits, and collaborative learning environments that expose students to new ideas, strengthen networks, and broaden career pathways.

In short, your gift creates wide-ranging impact by supporting initiatives that help students pursue meaningful experiences aligned with their aspirations. Your support ensures that every O’Neill student can access these life-changing opportunities. Together, we can empower the next generation.
