We’re glad to share that Mission Partners has a new cohort of Social Impact Fellows joining us this summer for the 2026 Social Impact Communications Fellowship. Continuous learning and growth is a value we hold close, and our fellowship is one of the ways we put it into practice. It brings early-career communicators into the heart of our work, supporting the nonprofits and foundations advancing meaningful change in their communities.

We’re grateful to have this group alongside us this summer, bringing a range of experience across communications, public health, journalism, and nonprofit work—and a shared commitment to using their skills in service of others. Meet Kate Moroney, Mollie Binderman, and Paige Devanney!

Her experience spans federal and state policymaking, digital strategy, and public affairs—most recently through an internship at a D.C. public affairs firm managing health care coalitions and a summer on Capitol Hill advocating for policies to expand patient access and support cancer care innovation. Kate brings a deep commitment to mission-driven work and a passion for using strategic communications to help organizations engage audiences and create meaningful impact.

Introducing Mollie Binderman (she/her)
