Food Integrity Campaign | February 11, 2022

FIC is excited to announce that we’re partnering with the Reducetarian Foundation on their newest initiative, the Reducetarian Fellowship!

The Reducetarian Fellowship is designed to foster a more diverse, sustainable, and impactful movement by empowering bright, passionate, and ambitious young advocates and innovators to transform our food system. This opportunity is for exceptional New York City-area undergraduate students who are eager to create a more sustainable, healthy, and compassionate world. Each fellow receives a $7,500 stipend to support their participation in the program.
