Providing a living wage, professional development, and educational opportunities for each nine-month fellowship costs approximately $150,000 – and presents immeasurable value for a potential public servant. Please consider making a generous donation to help fund our fellows and expand opportunity.

ReNew Democracy is committed to finding the future of diverse, talented public servants whose voices are often excluded from policymaking. Are you affiliated with a Minority Serving Institution, a center-left governmental official, nonprofit, business or think tank, and want to help our outreach?
Please email fellowships@renewdemocracyfoundation.org to discuss.

The ReNew Democracy Foundation is a new organization and needs YOUR help to spread the word about our mission and opportunities for aspiring public servants! Follow and share our social media, and download our flyers and templates to spread the word yourself!
The future of our democracy and the economy it shapes depends on enacting bold policies that reflect the diversity of our communities.
