Introducing the winners of the Propel Impact Accelerator
Over 50 leaders from our Community applied to the Impact Accelerator to boost their social organizations with funding and personalized support.
The Propel Impact Accelerator is our latest initiative for social organizations in the region. Ten social leaders will receive USD 15,000 in funding, mentorship, and coaching to bring their digital initiatives to life.
From Guatemala to Chile, we are supporting organizations transforming the reality of Latin America. With this support, Propel aims to continue strengthening the social sector in the region and promote the closing of social gaps. Nathaly Cuesta from Timbalé shares:
“Being part of this program brings us closer to our purpose of using art as a driver of peace, well-being, leadership, and community.”
