MUPP student Tanniqua-Kay Buchanan Awarded Field Foundation of Illinois fellowship
MUPP student Tanniqua-Kay Buchanan has been awarded the Field Foundation of Illinois fellowship. The Fellowship is related to the Foundation's program areas of Justice, Art and Leadership Investment, and aims to offer experience in philanthropy and civic leadership. The Field Foundation is a nonprofit, private foundation established in 1940. The Foundation uses a strong racial equity lens and prioritizes funding nonprofit organizations that work in traditionally divested areas of Chicago. These organizations address systemic social justice issues, make creative and cultural contributions to Chicago, and support leaders in those arenas. Tanniqua will spend 2018-19 academic year working part time at the Foundation. Congratulations and best wishes with this great opportunity!
