Echoing Green Fellowship 2021

• You must be over 18 years old, fluent in English, and able to commit full-time to your organization. If you are currently a full-time student or employee, you must agree to make your organization your full-time engagement if awarded a Fellowship.
• You must be the primary decision-maker and have ultimate authority over the growth and strategic vision of your organization.
• You do not need to be based in the United States or be an American citizen. Echoing Green does not sponsor American work permits for any foreign nationals.
• You are welcome to reapply in future cycles if you do not receive a fellowship.

Organization Eligibility

• The organization must be the original idea of the applicant, in its start-up phase, and independent and autonomous.
• An organization can be structured as a nonprofit, for-profit, or hybrid.
• An organization does not only have to be run by one individual, but only a single applicant is eligible to apply for an Echoing Green fellowship starting in 2021.
• Organizations still in the idea phase are eligible. You do not need to establish 501(c)(3) status or register your organization before you apply.
• The organization must be independent and autonomous. It cannot be under the management of another organization. If you have a fiscal sponsor that provides support but does not control organization decisions, you are eligible.
• No members of an organization’s founding team and no individuals in a leadership position at the organization can already have been awarded an Echoing Green Fellowship.
• Tuition or scholarship funding, or research projects; lobbying or faith-based organizations; and existing organizations that have grown past their start-up phase are not eligible to apply.

Application Cycle

Applicants who are selected for the Fellowship will be notified in August 2021. Our next application cycle will launch in fall 2021. Sign up to be notified about new application cycles.

Submission Policies

• Submit your final application using Echoing Green’s application website. Do not mail, fax, or email your application – Echoing Green will not accept it if it is not submitted through the application website. No exceptions!
• Any extraneous materials submitted will be discarded immediately and not reviewed. We will not accept or review any other documents (e.g., letters of inquiry, business plans) in lieu of the online application.
• Your application must be received before 2:00 PM (14:00) ET on the date of the deadline. Without exception, if Echoing Green receives your application after this deadline, regardless of technical difficulty, your submission will not be considered for the Fellowship application cycle.
• Applications cannot be revised once they have been submitted. Once you submit on Echoing Green’s application website, no changes can be made, even if time remains before the final deadline.
• You may only submit one application. Any applicant who submits multiple applications for the same project or single applications for different projects in the same application cycle will be automatically disqualified from consideration.
