Deadline: April 14, 2025
Applications are open for the 776 Foundation Fellowship Program 2025. The 776 Fellowship Program is a two-year program for young people who want to build a better future. There are some big ideas that can’t wait—especially when it comes to climate change—and 776 wants to support problem-solvers at the earliest possible stage.
The Fellowship Program gives 20 remarkable people the age of 24 and under the chance to spend two years working on the bright idea that’s keeping them up at night. They’ll benefit from a community of peers and access to the extended 776 network through Cerebro (the firm’s operating system).
Fellowship Goals
- Invest in young people tackling climate change: Some of the best minds around the world aren’t able to take two years off to focus on solving the greatest threat to humanity: climate change. They are equipping some of the most driven future leaders with the capital and support needed to fully immerse themselves in what could be the next world-saving idea.
- Scale the impact of 776: The team at 776 is tasked with backing exceptional founders as early as possible in their journey, giving potential founders the space and time (and money) to build something great.
- Enrich the community with the next generation of talent: This program will deeply challenge Fellows to think critically and creatively and will turnout the next generation of great founders and operators. This Fellowship program can be the springboard for unlimited opportunities because it’s reaching so deep into a pool of talented individuals before their careers have even started.
Benefits
- Fellows will receive a $100,000 grant over two years to work on projects to fight climate change instead of pursuing a university degree.
Eligibility
- Fellows must be ages 18 to 24 and can live anywhere in the world.
- They are looking for a wide range of ideas, as climate change is a technological, social, and political issue.
- If you are working on a great idea or project, they are interested in hearing from you, however, if you already have a partner/co-founder, you can apply together.
- This is a full-time program, so they are looking for applicants who are not currently enrolled in school or want to take two years away from school to focus on their project, company or idea. You can still be enrolled when you apply, but they’d expect you to drop out if you get accepted.
Application
The 4th Cohort will be selected May 2025, with a start date of June 2025. Application deadline is April 14, 2025.
