“Love is the ultimate rebuke to the hatred
of those who attacked us that bright,
blue morning & a tribute to hope over fear.”
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
We believe that our nation is both good & great.
Project 351, a nonprofit organization, is an incubator for the Commonwealth’s next generation of change makers, civic leaders, and social entrepreneurs. By effort and example, 35ONE leaders build a more compassionate, united, and just Commonwealth.
We mark the 25th anniversary of 9.11 at a time of great division. One that tests the strength of our civic institutions and legacy as a big hearted nation. Our young leaders offer a hopeful way forward. A path defined by their values and vision, and unrelenting belief in the promise of America.
Since 2011, 5,930 eighth grade unsung heroes have embraced the responsibility to lead and obligation to serve. United across 351 cities and towns, Ambassadors begin a five-year commitment to build the skills and knowledge required of bold, courageous leaders. Their collective impact spans 1.6 million neighbors served, civic engagement at scale, and a pipeline of diverse change makers with the skills and knowledge to succeed in college, career, and a lifetime of civic leadership.
