What is
ASHOKA?
Ashoka is a living encyclopedia of social innovation across the globe. We pioneered the field of social entrepreneurship and are now building toward an “everyone a changemaker” world: where all people have the confidence and support to solve problems and contribute to the common good. Here in the U.S., we find and support 300+ social entrepreneurs as Ashoka Fellows – women and men who reflect the dynamism and diversity of ALL of America, and bring powerful ideas for the future. Join us and our Ashoka Fellow community in building a more resilient, inclusive country – where everyone owns the future and helps shape it.
Meet the Fellows
How can we rebuild the economy for more equity? Make life-saving drugs affordable for all? Re-imagine school and how young people grow up? Explore the solutions of the world’s social entrepreneurs every week in our Welcome Change series.
Explore All America
The best ideas come from where problems are acutely felt – one of the many reasons we want our fellowship to reflect the dynamism and diversity of the country. Read insights from the network.
