Matrix Leadership Scholarship Fund

In our world, divide and conquer must become define and empower. ~ It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.

-- Audre Lorde


Dear Matrix Friends,

When you walk into any Matrix Leadership event, your deepest learning and inspiration will come in part from the convergence of people who are different from you. A training group could include a young musician, a 75-year old retired school teacher, a marketing director of a large communications firm, a Ghanaian nutritionist, a young Latina executive, a gay rights activist, a white male senior vice president, a womens' high school
basketball coach, and an environmental leadership student. Of the 9 people, 6 of them received full or partial scholarships to support their participation in Matrix Leadership training.

We are deeply committed to providing this training to all who seek to co-create an interconnected, sustainable world. Help us provide Scholarships for Young Leaders, Mentors, Elders & Global Citizens for Matrix Leadership Training:

Our goal is to raise our Scholarship Fund (hosted by Triskeles Foundation) to over $25,000 in order to provide scholarships for deserving leaders who cannot pay for Matrix Leadership training. Please help ignite this Matrix of support!

Click on and follow the instructions.
Your dollars will go directly to sponsor young leaders, mentors, elders and global citizens to attend a Matrix program. They learn to develop Matrix Communication Networks in order to shift organizations and communities from a paradigm based in separateness, competition and control to one that generates connection, partnership and collaboration. We steward the social side of sustainability.

  • $290 provides a scholarship for college student leaders to attend the Matrix Experience introductory workshop to inspire their visions of interconnected leadership in sustainable human communities
  • $580 provides scholarships for a team of 2 teachers to attend Matrix in the Classroom to generate cross-cultural connections and social inclusion in their classrooms
  • $1190 supports an elder living on a fixed income, e.g., a retired university professor, to attend a 2-phase, 8-day Matrix Essentials training to engage in inter-generational leadership and collective action
  • $1600 makes it possible for an inspired young, social entrepreneur to attend our Matrix Facilitator training to collaborate with others who are committed to transforming business
  • $2800 supports an advanced international Matrix student to attend the comprehensive, 4-phase, 17-day Matrix Foundation training, to inform and sustain her work to generate support services for low-income women in Israel.

If you would like to support the development of a specific non-profit program, e.g. training social workers to bring Matrix into families or developing a mentor program for at-risk youth, we would be happy to explore partnering to apply Matrix Leadership in specific contexts.

Any donation amount is welcome and will go toward a scholarship for a Matrix program. If you can give $10 or $20 per month, you will play a significant part in shifting consciousness to interconnection. It is money that will be returned to the world many-fold.

Making a donation is easy and tax-deductible:
