For more than 25 years, the Indianapolis performing arts community has come together for Deborah J. Simon Spotlight, a night of song, dance, drama and theater to raise money for The Indiana AIDS Fund, a fundraising program of The Health Foundation of Greater Indianapolis. The Health Foundation of Greater Indianapolis is the largest private funder of HIV/AIDS programs in Indiana, and Spotlight is the largest HIV prevention arts fundraiser in the Midwest.
