    Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education Fund Announces Carol H. Pitchersky Development Fellowship
    Deadline: March 15, 2006

    Founded in 1969 as the education and research arm of the civil rights coalition, the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education Fund (<a href="http://www.civilrights.org/">http://www.civilrights.org/</a>) uses its research and education campaigns to promote an understanding of the need for national policies that support civil rights and social and economic justice. LCCREF initiatives are grounded in the belief that an informed public is more likely to support effective federal civil rights and social justice policies.

    The LCCREF has established the Carol H. Pitchersky Development Fellowship in honor of Carol H. Pitchersky, a fundraising pioneer who died in October 2004. The purpose of the fellowship is threefold: 1) to help expand the fundraising capacity of the social justice community; 2) to offer career opportunities to persons of color in development; and 3) to further the understanding of diversity in donor relations.

    The fellowship program will identify and support persons of color who are aspiring development professionals, have demonstrated a commitment to civil rights and social justice, and wish to advance their careers in nonprofit fundraising. Fellows serve two-year terms of employment at an organization in the social justice community.

    The fellow will receive an annual salary between $40,000 and $65,000, depending on the city and organization of the fellow’s placement.

    Complete program information and application instructions are available at the LCCREF Web site.
