INSPIRE YOUTH JOURNAL Welcomes TRIIBE as Distinguished Partner
We are pleased to announce TRIIBE as a Distinguished Partner of INSPIRE YOUTH JOURNAL.
“TRIBE exists to help next-gen nonprofit founders continue their work. Youth-led organizations receive a fraction of philanthropic funding, and most early-stage nonprofits lose momentum before they ever reach scale.
The biggest drop-off isn’t inspiration. It’s structure. When founders turn 18 and enter college, time disappears, funding dries up, and the support systems that once helped them shrink. That transition quietly shuts down thousands of high-potential organizations.
TRIIBE is the missing pipeline for social impact. We operate a fellowship built for nonprofit founders, a clear path through college with the three things early-stage founders actually need: funding, mentorship, and community.
Our cohorts prioritize quality over quantity because we work with founders for three full years. Each semester, TRIIBE branches welcome a new cohort of five nonprofit founders, each with real operating experience, and each already running their foundation for an average of six years. Several have already been recognized as Forbes 30 Under 30, George Bush Points of Light Fellows, and L’Oréal Women of Worth.”
TRIIBE is sponsored by Steve Madden, Allegiance Partners, Rayze, and DO THE THING, and partners with ESG News, CLOZTALK, Brooklyn Law School, Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Organization (WEDO), illuminem, United Planet, and INSPIRE YOUTH JOURNAL.
Its Legacy Board includes Mr. Flaviu Simihaian, Co-Founder of Aventi Health; Mr. Stefan Avivson, Co-Founder & CEO of RSN; Ms. Stacey Lauren, Founder of DO THE THING; Mr. Gregg Meyer, CSO & President of Steve Madden Corporate Foundation; Ms. JapNeet Voria, Founder of Green Kids Chronicles & Board Director ISACA; and Ms. Lara Stein, Founder of TEDx.
