Frequently Asked Questions
about the National Leaders CollectiveTestimonials
"The National Leaders Collective has been an incredible opportunity full of growth for me personally and professionally. My time as a fellow the past two years had prepared me for my calling to go into the world and be a voice for the voiceless."
Natalee Wilson, 2022-2023 Student Spokesperson
"I am grateful for my experience with Students for Life and the lessons learned that have prepared me for this next step in life as Executive Director of a pregnancy center. Students for Life helped me to recognize the desire in my heart to help pregnant mothers and their children in a very direct way…I hope to take part in saving the lives of many children and showing mothers that they have the strength and ability to choose life."
Julie Kilmer, 2022-2023 Christian Leadership Fellow
"What I have learned about leadership and the pro-life movement has helped my grow tremendously as a leader. From what I have learned and the connections I have made from other leaders, applying for this fellowship is one of the best choices I ever made."
Penelope Rose, 2023-2023 William Wilberforce Fellow
This year, my leadership was taken to the next level through the student spokesperson fellowship by teaching me how to use my voice to influence others for life and learn how to succeed in a pro-life career.
Chloe Kramer, 2023-2024 Student Spokesperson
"I never thought of myself as much of a leader prior to this year, but my fellowship taught me that there is not one 'type' of leader! Each one of us can play a part in creating a culture of life."
Kathryn Pluta, 2021-2022 Christian Leadership Fellowship
"My involvement in the NLC allowed me to learn from experienced pro-life leaders who have worked/currently work in the pro-life movement and get advice on how to grow professionally and personally in my activism. This fellowship led to me getting an internship and ultimately a full-time job with Students for Life."
Morgan Reece, 2023-2023 William Wilberforce Fellow
"Going into the Christian Leadership Fellowship, I had no idea what I was doing or where I fit in. When I arrived at Campbell University as a freshman this year, I expected my pro-life work would be accepted because it was a “Christian College.” However, I instead spent the year facing death threats, hatred, protests, and other crazy backlash. My fellowship was the one place I could stay motivated and feel supported. By the end of the year, I changed 50 pro-choice minds, passed a pro-life resolution, and have been elected president of my college SFLA. My fellowship is truly the reason I kept going, I’m so grateful for my community with them and the impact they had on me."
Lydia Taylor, 2021-2022 Christian Leadership Fellowship
