The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation (ZSR) is seeking to invest directly in young innovators, change makers, visionaries, entrepreneurs and risk takers between the ages of 21 and 35 with bold ideas for how to make a difference in North Carolina and its communities. The newly established All For NC Fellowship is a 12-month program designed to provide funding, coaching and mentoring to young people who have a vision and plan that could contribute to a better life for North Carolina’s people and communities. *Note: The All For NC Fellowship is distinctly different from ZSR's Fellowship.
Fellows will receive:
- An individual stipend of $75,000 (pre-tax) for personal and project expenses incurred during the fellowship;
- Professional growth opportunities such as one-on-one coaching; and
- Shared educational experiences in-person with peers, coaches and community leaders.
We believe our All For NC Fellows should reflect the rich diversity of North Carolina and want young North Carolinians from all walks of life to consider this opportunity. We especially encourage people of color, women, LGBTQ persons and rural residents to apply.
For 80 years, ZSR has worked to improve the quality of life for all North Carolinians. Read more about ZSR’s mission and core values.
