Connect with Emerging Young Leaders
As a TFI Sponsor, your organization has the opportunity to connect with a community of outstanding young professionals as well as TFI's network of alumni and Fellows program leaders.
Are you seeking new employers, graduate students, community service volunteers? Becoming a TFI Sponsor is a great way to advance your organization's mission by connecting with fellows and local program leaders.
TFI fellows are motivated, leadership-oriented young men and women. Experience in a TFI Fellows program helps develop in these young leaders not only a sense of calling and purpose, but a framework of servant leadership and personal excellence that extends to every area of life. ​

About the TFI Audience
Sponsors have the opportunity to interact with three important audiences, the current class of fellows, TFI's alumni community, and the leaders of the local Fellows programs. The TFI network currently has 36 geographically distributed programs, 250 fellows each year, and 3,500+ alumni.
Most current fellows are recent college graduates ranging in age from 21 to 25. They come with a wide range of professional interests and undergraduate majors - literally from Art to Zoology and everything in between. Fellows have come from more than 100 top colleges and universities. Alumni are 22 to 52, living all around the world, and serving in many different professions.
To be eligible for a Fellows program, these young men and women must demonstrate teachability, humility, personal maturity, a heart for serving others, and a drive to excel (e.g. strong academic performance). During the Fellows program year, fellows are involved in paid jobs with companies, nonprofits, churches, or government agencies. They receive exceptional leadership training and graduate theological education that includes a Biblical grounding in faith, vocation, culture, and service.
Each Fellows program operates under the leadership of a local program director and uniquely serves the needs of its local church and community. There are approximately 65 staff members in the TFI network, including program directors, assistant directors, and others. They not only lead their programs but recruit at campuses across the country and maintain volunteer teams of 25-100 people at each Fellows program location. Fellows program directors have large networks within their churches and with employers, community leaders, thought leaders, and many others.
