Such a cool fellowship!! I've been following and recommending it for a while too - plus Ash Gallegos is part of the team and she's awesome.
Is this for US based citizens only, or open to international candidates?
This looks like a fantastic fellowship, thanks for sharing Nick Martin! A quick note on one FAQ folks likely have that makes this even more compelling: "MFF funds all travel, meals, and accommodation expenses related to the program for fellows and mentors."
This looks like such an incredible program! There's real beauty in a simple model that benefits everyone in such a powerful way. I wish I could sign up, but will forward along to some friends. 😄
Is it US only?
