2023 Annual Giving Campaign
Funds raised through the Annual Giving Campaign directly support efforts to break down barriers to entrepreneurship by funding Scholarships for Fellows who are financially eligible due to high-debt or systemic barriers, including low-income backgrounds.
“The scholarship enabled me to accept the fellowship offer, facilitating my participation in the transformative VFC 1-year experience. As an international student then, I needed a financial means to contribute to the program. I am profoundly grateful for the scholarship, without which I wouldn't have been able to engage and learn from this invaluable opportunity fully.”
Donors
“It’s fascinating how simple exposure to ambition can begin normalizing otherwise intimidating endeavours. VFCs community is rich with individuals who materialize their vision and creativity through hard work. In the process, they leave a meaningful impact on the world through either the creation of their own ventures or their involvement in existing ones. It was the ability to have more individuals experience the magic of this exposure and community that inspired me to donate to the Fellowship scholarship program, and I can’t wait to see how the next generation of Fellows foster what they learn here.”
