I love coming to work… I’ve never said that before. I offered my skills, which I had taken for granted, and they were deeply appreciated.
PHYLLIS MATSUURA
Encore Fellow for Humane Society Silicon Valley
I had been in the trenches for so long it was hard to get my head around using my skills in a different way. The Fellowship gave me a new avenue to choose my next step.

Candidates apply to be an Encore Fellow, rather than to a specific opening. We review applications for potential matches. Matches can take time, often a few months or more, depending on the opportunities available.
An application is the first step in the process of becoming an Encore Fellow. There is no commitment until a match is made and accepted by the Fellow and the host. Applicants will be contacted for further discussion of openings, and their interest and skills, when there is a potential match with a host organization.
