The Encore Fellowships Program

The Encore Fellowships Program is a professional initiative that connects experienced professionals—usually mid to late-career individuals—with nonprofit organizations to provide their expertise on meaningful projects. Fellows volunteer their skills for a specified period, typically a year, helping these organizations address important challenges and improve their impact. In return, fellows gain a rewarding opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the community, often while maintaining income and career momentum. The program fosters collaboration, capacity-building, and career fulfillment for seasoned professionals eager to make a difference beyond their traditional careers.
