Independent Sector proudly announces our 2020 American Express NGen Fellows cohort.
Young people continue to show us through individual and collective action that there is vast, emergent power in our next generation. While the pandemic has elevated conversations about reworking systems and values, we’re also openly grappling with structural racism as a nation. The activism and movements currently unfolding are being led by our next generation of leaders – leaders with a vision for a better world, like the 12 outstanding social sector leaders, age 40 and under, who are our latest cohort of American Express NGen Fellows.
These latest leaders in our Fellows program – designed to deepen their individual capabilities, expand their collective knowledge, and grow their professional networks – join the ranks of more than 112 American Express NGen Fellows alums. Please join us in celebrating this group of outstanding leaders.
