2014 ProInspire Fellowship

 

What would you do if you could change the world?

 

At ProInspire, we are dedicated to building the next generation of nonprofit leaders who are changing the world. We are currently recruiting top professionals with 2-5 years of business experience to be a part of our flagship program, the ProInspire Fellowship. This highly competitive program offers targeted positions with leading nonprofits, monthly trainings with a cohort of peers, a coach, and a network to support career growth. Fellows spend one year working in an analytical, operational, marketing or strategic role at a nonprofit organization. After the Fellowship, Fellows engage with our growing community of alumni to continue investing in the social sector.

 

Every day, ProInspire Fellows address critical social issues like empowering youth in our communities, immunizing children in developing countries, and expanding financial access all over the world.  ProInspire Fellows make a real difference by using their passion, skills, and experience for social impact.

 

ProInspire focuses on expanding the social sector's talent pipeline, developing professionals, and increasing diversity in the sector. We are passionate about accelerating social impact and being catalysts of outstanding performance.  We have been operating in the Washington DC region since 2009 and in the San Francisco Bay Area since 2012. Previous ProInspire Fellows come from across the U.S. with experience at Accenture, Bain, BCG, Deloitte, General Mills, Goldman Sachs, Google, JPMorgan,, The Carlyle Group, and other leading companies.
