We are looking for the future changemakers who are committed to addressing the world’s most pressing issues. Volunteer Fellows generally have the following characteristics:

• Willingness to take risks & ask bold questions

• A demonstrated passion for addressing issues in your community and a record of service work

• An ability to be vulnerable/self-reflective & explore how a personal story connects to your passion

• High levels of academic engagement & curiosity

• Interest in social entrepreneurship, international development or using their field to change the world for the better

• Strong leadership potential & an interest in developing leadership skills

• Students ages 15-19

Our one-month Fellowship is $2,000 and includes mentorship sessions and our team supports you in fully developing, implementing and creating a global impact project.

If you add on a 7-day Volunteer Residency the cost is $4,000

We run a 1 for 1 program, so for every paying student we work with, another student is given a full scholarship to participate in the Volunteer Fellowship.

Student can apply using an application link & will be asked to submit a 1-3 minutes video or a written reflection on the quote:

“Heartbreak delivers your purpose. If you are brave enough to accept that delivery and seek out the people doing that particular world-changing work, you find your people. There is no bond like the bond that is forged among people who are united in the same world-healing work.Tell me what breaks your heart, and I'll point you toward both.” - Glennon Doyle

We want to hear from you…what is happening in the world that breaks your heart & that you want to change, why is it important to you & how have you been or want to become a part of that change?

Selected students will be invited to interview with us for both the Capstone & the Fellowship

Our Fellowship runs year round and admissions is rolling. Once we’re full, students will be placed on a waitlist for the next year.

For the Volunteer Fellowship you will average around 3 hours per week including individual & group sessions, as well as outside work.

We help connect the projects from our Volunteer Fellows to our global network of community partners, through an online platform so that communities get the chance to access the resources they need and create the change that they want to see.
