The Ken Nunn Scholarship
Education is an important tool that challenges students to become exceptional residents of our community. Additionally, it equips them with the skills and knowledge to create a brighter and stronger future.
However, in many cases, students contemplate whether or not they will be able to attend college or return to college due to financial reasons. That’s why our firm created The Ken Nunn Scholarship. We hope that this scholarship opportunity will alleviate some of the financial burdens students often encounter when deciding to embark on their journey towards higher education.
This scholarship will grant one (1) student a $1,000 scholarship to be applied toward their tuition or other education-related costs.

Ken Nunn’s Passion for Education
Attorney Ken Nunn believes everyone should have access to a good education, no matter their financial status or background. Ken grew up in poverty, often without stable housing, and dropped out of high-school at age 16. He eventually went back to school, graduated, and went on to attend Indiana University Law School where he obtained his law degree. That degree has enabled him to build what is now one of the most prestigious law firms in the nation.
“Education is the doorway to opportunity. It’s important to me to help young people succeed in life.” – Ken Nunn
Ken is passionate about helping students get the education they deserve and acquire the tools they need to make an impact in the world. It’s one of the reasons why he’s contributed to the improvement of Indiana University facilities.
