Abercrombie & Fitch Global Diversity & Leadership
Scholar Award
Abercrombie & Fitch (A&F) has partnered with NSHSS to advance global leadership among young scholars and has established the Abercrombie & Fitch Global Diversity & Leadership Scholar Awards. The worldwide competition is based on essay submissions from NSHSS members exploring their perspectives on the theme of diversity and inclusion. Submissions are judged on ingenuity and quality and scholarships will be awarded each year to the top candidates.
"In a world so connected by commonalities yet sometimes divided by differences, this partnership is exciting because it creates a platform where tomorrow's leaders--from around the world--can provide a thoughtful perspective on why it is important to embrace differences," said Todd Corley/Sr. VP Diversity & Inclusion, Abercrombie & Fitch. "It provides us a unique opportunity to identify the type of talent we need to help grow our brands domestically and internationally; we are able to support the growth and development of tomorrow's leaders through scholarship and education."
