Public Allies Launches Fund to Empower Community Leaders
Public Allies Unveils Leadership in Action Fund
In response to recent federal funding cuts, Public Allies announces fund to support critical community leaders
Public Allies, a national nonprofit dedicated to creating a just and equitable society, is excited to unveil its Leadership in Action Fund. This initiative aims to raise $1 million within six months to support its diverse community of young leaders and sustain essential programs facing financial challenges due to cuts in AmeriCorps funding.
Addressing the Need for Support
"Nonprofit organizations across the country are facing uncertainty," states Jenise Terrell, CEO of Public Allies. "We are appealing to individuals and philanthropic organizations to fill the gap resulted from deliberate cuts to the nation’s social safety net. Our network of innovative, community-rooted leaders are ready to step in when the government cannot ensure the well-being of all citizens."
The Impact of Community Leadership
Since 1992, Public Allies has forged partnerships with over 3,000 local nonprofits and government agencies. The organization has empowered more than 10,000 young leaders, equipping them with the skills necessary to create new initiatives addressing urgent issues such as education, homelessness, hunger, violence prevention, and underemployment.
Mobilizing Local Heroes
With an extensive network and three decades of experience, Public Allies mobilizes everyday individuals to form supportive communities that can withstand the effects of recent federal funding cuts. The organization believes that fostering strong communities is pivotal for a healthy democracy.
Wisconsin State Rep Darrin Madison remarks, "Every time we invest in a young leader or empower a local organization, we strengthen the foundation of our democracy. Public Allies was crucial in my development as a community leader. If we fail to act quickly, the repercussions of these funding cuts may linger for generations."
