Changemaker Fellow Tre Borden, TEDxSacramento, 2015
We are excited to announce the return of TEDxSacramento's Changemaker Fellowship in 2016. The Fellowship will be awarded to a Sacramento community member whose work in the community and ideas worth sharing represent "What's Next" in the Sacramento region and/or beyond.
The Fellowship is available to any citizen of Sacramento, from an artist, to a school teacher, to a CEO. The candidates will be chosen based upon the strength of their idea and their work supporting this idea.
The application is open starting today and ends February 5, 2016. On February 6 we will announce our finalists. The finalists will then need to submit an 3-minute video of their idea by February 8. Winners will be announced on February 9.
Winners will be awarded:
