Support the Program
The Mandela Washington Fellowship at the University of Notre Dame relies on the support of a variety of individuals and organizations within and outside of the University. There are two primary ways for individuals to support the program at this time.
Become a Host Family for an Evening
Every summer since 2014 the University of Notre Dame has welcomed Mandela Washington Fellows to campus for their Leadership in Business Institute. Our team at the Pulte Institute is in the midst of program planning and one of the cherished cultural events is the Family and Friends Hospitality Night.
This year Family and Friends Hospitality Night will take place on July 1, 2023 from 4-8pm. If you're interested in hosting a Fellow, please contact Ed Jurkovic by June 1, 2023. If you would like to receive general information on the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders program at the University of Notre Dame, please contact Sarah Genz at sgenz@nd.edu or (574) 631-5469.
