John J. Lennon was selected to join the fourth cohort of Galaxy Gives’ Galaxy Leader Fellowship Program. Galaxy Gives is the philanthropic entity of the Mike and Sukey Novogratz Family.
Launched in 2019, the fellowship program has provided more than $4 million to some of this nation’s brightest and most innovative organizers and advocates in their efforts to build power in systematically disinvested communities, reduce violence and over-policing, and break America’s reliance on incarceration. More than 90 percent of previous Galaxy Leaders Fellows have been incarcerated, are survivors of harm, or provided primary support for a close family member who was incarcerated.
