2026 EPIP LA Mentorship Program Application
The EPIP LA Mentorship Program connects emerging leaders in the philanthropic field with a seasoned leader to serve as a mentor and a cohort of like-minded peers to support them on their journey.

Mentees will meet with their mentor four times through the year, over zoom or in person. You will also be matched into a small cohort of fellow mentees which will meet 3 to 4 times throughout the year. At least one of the cohort meetings should take place in person.

Applicants must be willing to participate in a group interview (via Zoom) in mid- to late-July, and be able to commit to the full year of the program, if selected. 

This application is due Friday, June 26th, 2026 at 5 pm PST. If you have any questions please reach out to losangeles@epip.org.
