Who is Our Community
FUEL supports young founders and leaders of community impact work (ages 18-30). They share a commitment to create positive impact in the world, working across many different sectors and causes.
These young changemakers are creating environmental employment opportunities and access to better mental health support for youth. They are leading change towards gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights, and providing anti-racism training. They are finding solutions to food insecurity, and homelessness, and creating greater access to education. They are working locally and internationally to address systemic inequalities. Their changemaking is informed by their lived experiences and their connections to the communities they serve.

At FUEL, we create spaces for these changemakers that are safe, inclusive and nourishing, informed by our Community Guidelines.
