776 Foundation: Climate Fellowhsip


There are some big ideas that can’t wait—especially when it comes to climate change—and 776 wants to support problem-solvers at the earliest possible stage. The Fellowship Program gives 20 remarkable people the age of 24 and under the chance to spend two years working on the bright idea that’s keeping them up at night. They’ll benefit from a community of peers and access to the extended 776 network through Cerebro (our firm’s operating system).
About the Program
The 776 Fellowship is a two-year, full-time program for 18 - 24 year olds, across the world. Fellows will receive a $100,000 grant over two years to work on projects to fight climate change instead of pursuing a university degree.
This fellowship IS:
✅Skipping or dropping out of university to focus exclusively on a project, idea, or initiative full-time that is working toward solving the climate change crisis.
✅Fellows must be ages 18 to 24 and can live anywhere in the world.
This fellowship IS NOT:
❌A paid vacation
❌A networking program; your job as a fellow is to ship
