Central Indiana Community Foundation’s The Mosaic Fellowship (US)

Call for Applications: Spring 2023 YSEALI Academic Fellowship

Deadline: 27-Aug-21

The Mosaic Fellowship was established in partnership with The Indianapolis Foundation, an affiliate of Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF), and Leadership Indianapolis to increase diversity on boards not just so that boards look differently, but so they work differently.

By providing support to both individuals and organizations, Mosaic aims to shift power, elevate new voices and grow the perspectives included on not-for-profit boards throughout the community.

The Foundation recognizes there is still a dearth of diverse board leadership in Indianapolis organizations causing boards to remain overwhelmingly White and male.

Even organizations that have mastered diversity often fail at true inclusion and power-sharing with women, young people, and the BIPOC and LGBTQ communities. And, as a result, they continue to witness public organizational failures. The new Mosaic Fellowship is an evolution of the original fellowship and is intended to help the community address these critical issues.

There are many talented, capable, and qualified people who are eager to serve on not-for-profit boards but simply do not receive that invitation. For this reason, the Mosaic Fellowship is focused on individuals who have little or no previous board experience.

Four individuals will be selected to be Mosaic Fellows. Fellows will:
