Atlas Corps Asia and Europe

Hello!

Wow - this year continues to inspire, just as Atlas Corps Fellows motivate me everyday.

As 2019 draws to a close, I want to say Thank You! You helped us achieve a lot in one decade. In December 2009, Atlas Corps had supported only 25 Fellows from 7 countries. Now, as we approach the end of a decade, we are a diverse global community of more than 750 professionals from 95 countries. You got us here. You have grown with us. Will You continue to support us as we embark on a new decade? 

Your support for Atlas Corps helped us to recruit Meenakshi (India, Host: ParentChild+ Program). She inspires at her Host Organization and within our community. She described her Fellowship:

"My Fellowship is a tremendous elevating experience. It inspired me to believe in my passion, curate ideas, and build a platform to unlearn, learn, innovate, collaborate, and co-create solutions. The mentors gained during the Fellowship have inspired growth within me. After the Fellowship, I look forward to catalyzing youth to gain the skills to continue to make a better world."

In 2019, our annual theme is diversity and inclusion. This year, we added new countries to our community, including Indonesia and Israel. We’ve supported Fellows from every region of the world, every major religion, every major race and ethnic group, different sexual orientations, and a wide variety of political and social backgrounds.  We continue to make valuable strides in demonstrating the importance of diverse perspectives and inclusive approaches to global engagement. 

Join us in lifting up these leaders! Please support Atlas Corps Fellows like Meenakshi before the end of the year.

Thank you for being part of this dynamic community. Let’s make the next decade even more memorable!

Happy Holidays,

Scott
