Why we do it

Even successful nonprofit founders are cut off from funding by 20

How we do it

Our 3-year Fellowship ensures founders don't burn out while transitioning from a 'youth' nonprofit to an established one

TRIIBE Fellowship

TRIIBE Talks highlight next-gen nonprofit founders alongside peers over 30, because age doesn't determine the quality of a voice
