The Christianson Fellowship

The Christianson Fellowship is awarded to motivated young Americans who create and carry out their own meaningful service projects abroad. Fellows also share their experiences via regular blog posts about their project and a completion report in order to further international understanding and promote cultural awareness. As a grant applicant, you should showcase your specific skill-sets and the tangible, sustainable contribution you will make to a community abroad. Proposed programs must be at least six months in length and emphasize a work, internship, and/or volunteer component.


The InterExchange Foundation Christianson Fellowship provides awards of up to $10,000 to motivated young Americans who create and carry out their own meaningful service projects abroad.
