The 2025 FAO Schwarz Fellowship Hosts

The Fellowship is excited to announce their selection of the 2025-2027 host organizations.

The new hosts are five high-impact nonprofit organizations deeply valued by their communites. Three of the five are new to the Fellowship.

The Museum of Science in Boston and the Trust for Public Land in Philadelphia have previously hosted FAO Schwarz Fellows. They will be joined by our three first-time hosts —iMentor and the Hudson River Park’s River Project in New York City, NY and Boston Collegiate Charter School in Boston, MA. These organizations will partner with us to provide a combined five Fellowship positions for 2025-2027.

“We know that young people have the passion and potential to create a better world, and the Fellowship is designed to help them get there.”

Through a combination of direct service and leadership challenges, professional development and mentoring, Fellows gain first-hand experience leading change and learn how effective nonprofits create lasting and measurable progress.
