The Riley's Way Foundation has named 76 young changemakers as its 2026 'Call For Kindness' fellows, spotlighting Gen Z-led projects across the U.S. that address food insecurity, civic engagement, STEM access, mental health, environmental issues, and misinformation.
Each fellow receives up to $5,000 and leadership training. - Projects include food redistribution, community farms, legal literacy, and STEM education.
- Awards also cover performing arts, animal welfare, civil discourse, and equity in law. - The foundation emphasizes kindness as a leadership strategy, not just a soft skill.
These young leaders are building kinder communities and proving that empathy and impact go hand in hand.
