Applications now open for $1000k Findhelp Fellowship 2022 Program. The Findhelp Fellowship Program thinks that community-based initiatives have the biggest impact. Because of this, they are pleased to host a fellowship program that brings together people who are dedicated to improving neighborhoods from all across the country.
The fellowship program’s goal is to strengthen and support social care champions’ work in their local communities.

Each cohort’s fellows collaborate to plan and publicize their events, and Findhelp will support them in completing their projects.
