Resources are available through the Bush Fellowship program for individuals who want to build leadership skills and help tackle their communities' toughest problems.

The NDSU Extension Service has teamed up with the Bush Foundation to provide these resources. Funding ranges from $25,000 to $75,000.

Application deadlines will be staggered from May 4 and July 9.

"NDSU Extension is partnering with the Bush Foundation because the fellowship program is a great fit with our efforts to help individuals develop leadership skills and solve problems in their communities," said Jodi Bruns, Extension community economic development and leadership agent.
