The Committee of Seventy (C70) is seeking young professionals passionate about non-profit leadership and civic engagement to apply for the 2026 Buchholz Fellowship program. The Buchholz Fellowship is a year-long program which allows young professionals to serve as non-voting members of C70’s Board of Directors. Applications for the 2026 cohort of fellows are now open.

Ideal candidates for this competitive fellowship are emerging leaders ages 25-35 working in the private or nonprofit sector. Candidates will embody personal and professional integrity, a strong work ethic, collaborative spirit, a superior intellect and a passion for improving their communities.

We would appreciate your help publicizing this significant opportunity. If you know of an outstanding candidate who would be a match for this program, please encourage them to apply here or send their name to Brisa Diaz-Zorrilla at bdiaz-zorrilla@seventy.org.
