Each academic year, the Golub Capital Board Fellows Program partners with Chicago-area nonprofit organizations to host fellows on their boards of directors.
Nonprofits who participate in the Board Fellows program benefit in a number of ways: tapping into the talents and insights of a Kellogg student; delegating an important strategic project to a fellow; accessing the Kellogg and Northwestern community; and developing the next generation of civic leaders.
Program Components
Our nonprofit partners benefit from Kellogg students’ commitment to three components of leadership: Academics, Board Service and Community.
