Fellows’ Blog
Welcome to the blog of The Columbus Foundation's Summer Fellowship Program. Follow our Fellows as they help out the nonprofits they are matched with, learn on the job and from each other. The projects they are assigned to are challenging and highly important to the community and each nonprofit. Check back frequently, or sign up for the RSS, as many updates will be coming. It's going to be an exciting summer!-

Data is the Key

Learning the ropes
Hello everyone! It is strange to think that the summer has just begun. In just one week I’ve been able to meet so many exceptional people that are passionate about what they do (other Summer Fellows, coworkers, and clients). There are … Continue reading
