Funding Opportunities at Aspire Institute

The Crossroads Emerging Leaders Program (CELP) was launched from the Mittal South Asia Institute at Harvard, in partnership with the Harvard Club of the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council).

In October 2021 the Aspire Institute was launched as a spin off from Harvard as an independent non-profit. The Aspire Institute replaced the Crossroads Emerging Leaders Program.

Vision A future where every young person achieves their full potential and contributes their leadership and talents to build thriving communities.

Mission To prepare low-income, first-generation college students worldwide to be leaders in their communities and reach their full potential academically and professionally through a fully funded leadership development program.
