Exciting news teaser from Bush Foundation , "We look forward to welcoming and celebrating each new class of Bush Fellows — and it’s as thrilling today as it was when the very first Fellows were announced in 1966!
Through the years, the Fellowship program has evolved to meet the changing times while staying true to its original intent and Archie Bush’s unwavering belief in people and supporting them to grow.
We'll share lots more details in the months to come but wanted to tease up two of the changes: We'll be increasing the Fellowship amount and the number of Fellows we select. Be sure to sign up for our newsletter to stay in the loop!
