Since its inception, Echoing Green has always placed our focus on the leaders of organizations—rather than the organizations themselves.
Even if the Fellows in our community leave their startups and go on to other ventures, we select them knowing they are leaders dedicated to lifelong social impact. So along with seed funding, technical support, and access to networks and resources, Echoing Green’s Fellowship program prioritizes our Fellows’ wellbeing. This includes ongoing secular support from three Echoing Green Chaplains, focusing on mental and emotional wellbeing, as well as self-care workshops designed specifically for the struggles of entrepreneurship.
This support is important to provide at any time for social entrepreneurs, but it is crucial during a global pandemic. Join Echoing Green to discuss lessons learned from providing well-being support to social entrepreneurs at every stage and what support has meant during the COVID-19 outbreak.
