Fellowship programs are hardly unique. There are thousands of them throughout the world. What is unique in each program are the personalities, motivations and experiences of the fellows selected. The case is made with our Stoneleigh Fellows. While they all have a common denominator - passion to help children - their individual stories are far from similar. They are inspirational, intriguing and insightful.
