2019 Judith C. Jones Fellowship Fundraiser

The Judith C. Jones Fellowship for Trainers of Color supports trainers and organizers of color working in left and social justice movements. This year, five new and dynamic Fellows joined the program and we’re excited to support their growth over the next year. The Fellowship is grassroots funded - each donation goes a long way to support in-person retreats, scholarships to TFC workshops, webinars, and one-on-one coaching sessions. Thanks for making the program possible this year!

Meet our 2019 Fellows: Cicia Lee, Kade Cahe, Rashad Buni, Samantha Master, and Tanya Ferguson.

Fellows are doing a range of powerful work, including training popular movements, labor and migrant justice organizing, dismantling the prison industrial complex, leading bail out projects to decarcerate Black mothers, and community organizing for queer and trans communities. They bring relationships and leadership positions at Momentum, The Audre Lorde Project, Black Youth Project 100, Good Jobs Now, Public Service Alliance of Canada, and Justicia 4 Migrant Workers.

The 2019 cohort launches this Spring at their first in-person retreat, where they will learn about each others’ work, build skills, and set goals for the rest of the year. Thanks for donating and supporting our Fellows!
