The seven ATLANTIC FELLOWS programs and ATLANTIC FELLOWS community were funded by the late billionaire philanthropist, CHUCK FEENEY through his Giving While Living philosophy of philanthropy. Having given away his fortune during his lifetime, the Atlantic Fellows equity-focussed global programs were the “last big bet” of ATLANTIC PHILANTHROPIES, the organisation he founded to disperse his funds.

The programs came to life after several years of consultations, discussions and dedication among the staff of Atlantic Philanthropies, not least its board members and CEO.

As part of our series which features conversations with people closely involved with the original intent of the mission and vision of the global community of Atlantic Fellows, MARY McDONNELL, talks with former members of the board of Atlantic Philanthropies and its CEO about what was on their minds during those years of planning to create and develop the most appropriate equity-focussed programs and the Fellows who would comprise the global community. 

Author of OUR FOUNDING STORY about the origins of the programs, Mary is in a unique position to introduce the following conversation which she hosted in 2022 at the Global Annual Convening of Fellows.
