Posted by PHENND on September 17, 2019

Nonprofit organizations in the Greater Philadelphia region are invited to apply to host a PHENND Fellow for the 2020-2021 program year.  This application is for both new and returning host sites.

PHENND Fellows serve in full-time capacity-building positions in dynamic Philadelphia-area non-profits. By hosting a PHENND Fellow, partner agencies are able to launch new programs and initiatives that enable them to do more to carry out their missions as they relate to fighting poverty. In addition to strengthening the host agencies and the communities they serve, the program helps to cultivate the next generation of civic leaders.

PHENND Fellows are selected from a competitive pool of applicants. Candidates who are selected for the fellowship have outstanding academic records, excellent communication skills, significant service and leadership experience, and the ability to make an immediate impact at their host agencies.The program partners with AmeriCorps VISTA to support these projects.
