Fellowship in USA or Columbia for NGO Leaders - Atlas Service Corps

Overview

Atlas Service Corps is currently accepting applications from NGO leaders around the world for its fellowship program. The fellowship program is an opportunity for rising leaders from the NGO/nonprofit sector to undergo training and placement in the US or Columbia. The placement will be at “an outstanding US nonprofit organization” for a period of 50 weeks and all costs including travel, living, health insurance etc will be covered under the fellowship. However, securing visas from the US embassy will be the responsibility of the candidates even after the selection has been made. Besides all these benefits,the fellowship will also award “End of Service Award” for fellows after the completion of the program.
