S2W FELLOWSHIP
A Fellowship enabling You to Step2Words Celebration
An opportunity to impact the lives of children while finding your purpose and taking the next step in your career.
We deploy Step2Words Fellows in partner schools and implement our arts-based literacy program by collaborating with educational institutions that cater to disadvantaged children. The Step2Words Fellowship is a full-time, year-long and paid program. The program understands the needs of schools and the children they serve and aims to create a shift in learning outcomes and build 21st century skills in at-risk children. The collaboration culminates in an annual city-level showcase for stakeholders to see their children Step2Words a better tomorrow.
