- Inspired to make a difference in their community
- Considering pursuing a career/calling in service
We encourage you to join us for one of our staple events each year, including the Ignite Retreat and Sullivan Showcase. We also host monthly virtual networking calls and coordinate roadshows to visit you on campus.

Award Schools
Present annual awards to college students, faculty and community members of noble character, who place service to others above themselves.

Fellows Schools
Offer a three-year cohort-based fellowship to rising sophomores who receive scholarships, training, and ongoing guidance from Sullivan mentors.

“The Sullivan Foundation understands the challenges smaller universities with fewer funds face. They helped our students enter the exciting world of social entrepreneurship at a scale we could handle. We would not have this programming for our students without Sullivan.”
