I am the President of Americans <http://www.aidemocracy.org/> for
Informed Democracy, a non-profit, non-partisan educational organization
based in New Haven, CT, that promotes global awareness and citizenship.
I am writing to let you know about a fellowship opportunity that I
thought would interest your students at University of California, Los
Angeles.

Thanks to the support of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Open Society
Institute, MacArthur Foundation, Ford Foundation, and Hewlett
Foundation, our organization is pleased to be offering a new Change the
World fellowship that will allow a recent graduate or young professional
to join our staff in New Haven, CT.

I have copied below an announcement about this fellowship opportunity. I
would greatly appreciate it if you could share our announcements with
your students at University of California, Los Angeles.

With many thanks,

Seth Green

President, Americans <http://www.aidemocracy.org/> for Informed
