Spark Wins Prestigious Draper Richards Fellowship
Spark has received one of the top awards for non-profits in the world, the Draper Richards Fellowship. In a global search, the Draper Richards Foundation chose Spark as one of the four highest-growth/highest-potential non-profits. Founded by legendary venture capitalists Bill Draper and Robin Richards, the Draper Richards Foundation awards 4-6 Fellowships annually to provide financial support and expertise for organization-building.
This award recognizes Spark's unique apprenticeship programs, demonstrated success in the San Francisco Bay Area, and potential to create broad social change on a national level. Spark's staff and Board of Directors are humbled and thrilled by this opportunity, and are excited to serve more youth in the Bay Area and across the country. As always, we welcome your feedback and involvement, and look forward to building a high-impact organization together!
