Our Victory Empowerment Fellowship is for LGBTQ leaders of color and/or transgender leaders who seek to expand their campaign skills and policy-making power and join a strong cohort of movement leaders from across the country. The fellows attend our Candidate & Campaign Training and International LGBTQ Leaders Conference – and receive a year-long mentoring program.
We know our Fellowship helps participants make essential connections, learn new political skills and progress to the next stage of their career. Past Fellows include the first African-American openly transgender woman elected to public office, Minneapolis City Councilmember Andrea Jenkins ; the first transgender person to be elected in California for a non-judicial position, Palm Springs City Councilmember Lisa Middleton ; Hillsborough Commissioner and Vice Chair of the North Carolina Democratic Party Matt Hughes ; LGBTQ justice and immigrant rights activist Diego Sepulveda ; Executive Director of the National Federation of Filipino American Associations Jason Tengco and many more notable alumni.
John, we can train and support a new group of LGBTQ leaders of color and trans leaders who will take their skills home to their communities and make positive changes. We have the unique chance to raise $50,000 today for the Victory Empowerment Fellowship. Donate $50 and help us raise $25,000 to match our generous donor's contribution. [[link removed]]
