semifinalists.blog.jpg

Echoing Green is proud to announce that 350 incredible emerging social change organizations have been selected as semifinalists in our 2010 fellowship competition.  We received nearly 1,100 ideas for social change from nearly 70 countries around the world, and the announcement of our semifinalists is always very exciting.  As always, the Echoing Green staff and experienced evaluators were inspired and encouraged by the ideas, passion and enthusiasm for social change captured in the applications we received.  

Finally, we present the 2010 Echoing Green Fellowship semifinalists! Organizations # through L can be viewed below.  We will announce organizations M through Z tomorrow afternoon.

We would like to thank all of our applicants, especially the ones who are not moving on in our process.  We wish you the best of luck and encourage you to pursue your dream of making the world we live in peaceful and just for all.
