Hi NLC supporter,
No one does what New Leaders Council does. And to continue to scale-up our impact, we need sustained investments from supporters like you [[link removed]] .
NLC is the only leadership movement operating at our nationwide capacity, while still offering our core yearly Institute at no cost to Fellows. We are America’s best-kept secret, but with your help, we can expand our leadership pipeline [[link removed]] to a new kind of leader in every community.

In our chapters across the nation, NLC is doing something different and sorely needed. We are leading with vulnerability, accountability, and shared values. After just one weekend of their six-month NLC Institute, our local Fellows start as strangers but transform into a local collective, bonding over their shared experiences and dreams of impact.
That’s the kind of relationships needed to change the tide and create a force for good in our communities. Only in spaces of trust can Fellows connect and collaborate on the level needed to create local solutions for their local problems.
We are creating a new way of leading for a new kind of leader. We start local, gather cross-sector changemakers, build meaningful relationships, and create a collaborative environment that adds fire to the flames of progress.
We are a leadership pipeline that works, and our alumni are the proof.

Take Beto Altamirano for example: During his NLC San Antonio 2016 Institute, he was able to use his background in local government to ideate and test his next big idea , AI-driven tools that engage communities. That Capstone project would eventually become Irys, the company he co-founded and he is also a recipient of the VotoLatino-MacArthur Foundation Grant for his work in helping city governments better engage communities. "If we want to truly have an impact,” Beto says, “it starts in our backyards"
Then there’s Michelle Vallejo, another community-centered business owner and advocate . Michelle and her family run Pulga Los Portales, a local flea market in her community and during the pandemic, she had to use grit and innovation to adapt her business model and help her community members survive. As the co-founder of NLC South Texas Frontera, she is excited to welcome the next class of chapter Institute Fellows.
“People are so amazing when you provide them with the resources [[link removed]] they need to follow their heart and be able to create that change they want to see in the world,” says Michelle
NLC chapters are where change agents meet to make an impact. And beyond individual Fellows like Michelle and Beto, NLC has ripple effects in our communities, cities, states, and nation. And you can help further that local impact [[link removed]] by making a gift to New Leaders Council today.
Thank you for your Giving Tuesday gift, NLC supporter.
