How would you like to support?

 I am a member of  Nourish International - The Ohio State Chapter, an amazing student-run organization that is dedicated to ending extreme poverty through sustainable development.


    We are currently raising money for the Charles Madison Nabrit Memorial Garden, a community garden in a food desert are of Columbus that works to provide fresh produce to the surrounding area. The garden is currently working on a project to create a summer education program for local students and expand the garden. To do so, we are participating in a two week fundraising event called the Giving Challenge, where the Ohio State Chapter is competing in four teams to raise money to fund our project!

I have a personal goal to raise $250 through this fundraiser, and would truly appreciate your help. Any size donation will be a big help in allowing the Charles Madison Nabrit Memorial Garden to progress on creating a summer education program for children, expanding the garden and overcoming bureaucratic obstacles and serve the people of their own community. It’s amazing how little actions can have such a large impact!
Nourish International exists to nurture the skills, self-awareness, and confidence of students to become social impact leaders. 


Nourish chapters (teams of young leaders) are calling on their family, friends, peers, & broader communities to raise funds for their cause. Donate now to support students who are investing time and money in community-based initiatives!

What is Nourish International?


We are a community of students and alumni working and learning together, developing leadership skills, and gaining practical experience in management, communications, community-based impact, and much more.


We sharpen

leaders to effectively

amplify community

impact


Our Leaders in Action

Young leaders at UNC - Chapel
Hill used the Nourish platform
to stand in solidarity with the
"Boycott UNC" movement,
organized by students of color
calling for the removal of a
statue with direct ties to white
supremacy & slavery by
boycotting UNC Dining
Services.


They harnessed the the social
enterprise model to provide
over 3,500 affordable, 
alternative meals to students
from local vendors & donated
all revenue to UNC's recently
de-funded Center for Civil
Rights.


These young leaders are
harnessing resources, skills,
& ingenuity to meet a social
need & serve their community.

We prepare young people

to navigate the complex challenges

of being a social impact leader

The Nourish program delivers a learning experience
through teamwork, personalized feedback, 
coaching, curated resources/readings, 
& project delivery.


  1. Our young leaders have the support &
    infrastructure they need to amplify
    community impact.
  2. Our young leaders are effective,
    powerful, & committed to
    developing their WHOLE self.


Leadership Training
We focus on three leadership capacities:

  1. Emotional Intelligence;
  2. People Management; &
  3. Creativity


Impact Infrastructure
We offer:

  1. 501(c)(3) status;

Program Stats
Through mixed-income models, our teams of young

leaders have earned & invested over $800k into
community-based initiatives. And 90% of alumni

changing impact on their personal & professional

life.

Created for young leaders


A community-based program

designed to sustain leaders who
are change agents for the future.


Coaching

Our staff, alumni, & supporters
provide one-on-one coaching.
We're able to devote time to
each young leader & the work
they create.


Community

We believe that relationships
are the primary context of
existence. Our community,
staff, & alumni facilitate in-person
& online "Nourish Circles" and
other events.


Learn by Doing

The Nourish program is an
experiential learning opportunity
& virtually all time is spent
creating, reflecting, & leveling up.





 

Through Nourish, students grow as leaders and responsible members of their communities. They develop emotional intelligence, creativity, and healthy communication and leadership skills; it means hard skills like financial literacy and soft skills like the ability to lead teams and know oneself.

 

As a result of their Nourish experience, students better understand themselves as people, better understand the nuances of creating and supporting impact in communities, and feel empowered to bring their passions and visions to life in support of social impact and positive change for communities (by valuing impact over intentions).
