WELCOME TO THE

ALUMNI COMMUNITY

Going through the ANY program as

a Fellow, then transitioning to the corporate world as a young

professional has been a never-ending learning process... It is important to

share as much as I can with Fellows—the way mentors guided

and continue to guide me as a member of the ANY family.”

Odette, Fellow Alumna and Mentor Coach

FULL CIRCLE MENTORSHIPIn 2011, Jeffrey joined ANY as a Fellow. Seven years later, he returned to the program—this time as a Mentor Coach. He says, “I don’t take for granted ANY’s role in helping me see that there was a path to success, even when I thought there wasn’t one. In reflecting on my time as a Fellow and now as a Mentor Coach, I am so grateful to ANY. I made life-long friendships, started an amazing career and have the opportunity to give back in a way that is meaningful and personal.”

MENTOR COACH ALUMNA IN ACTION After finishing the program, Mentor Coach Alumna, Choua, joined the Young Leadership Board to support ANY in a new way. She then helped launch a crucial local partnership with her company, Unilever, and was featured in Unilever’s national communications for her volunteering.
