Announcing the Taylors Fellowship
Taylors TownSquare Launches Fellowship to Equip Everyday Citizens for Local Leadership
An eight-month journey of civic formation for neighbors who want to make a difference.
Taylors TownSquare is launching a new initiative to help answer one of the most common questions in community life: “How do I get involved in a meaningful way?”
The Taylors Fellowship, an eight-month program beginning this August, is designed to equip everyday residents with the clarity, confidence, and practical tools needed to lead well in their neighborhoods, churches, and community organizations.
“We kept hearing from people who cared deeply about Taylors but felt overwhelmed or unsure of how to contribute,” said Alex Reynolds, President of Taylors TownSquare. “This program is our response—an on-ramp into civic life that combines thoughtful reflection with real-world skills.”
Unlike traditional leadership programs geared toward executives or corporate advancement, the Taylors Fellowship is intentionally designed for grassroots leaders—residents ready to grow in wisdom and take action for the good of their community.

A Fellowship for the Thoughtful Neighbor
Each session explores one practical skill—such as communication, project management, or budgeting—paired with a book that prompts deeper reflection on leadership, responsibility, and community life.
Monthly sessions are facilitated by local leaders Alex Reynolds, Sarah Poole, and Valerie Anderson, with light breakfast and coffee provided.
“We believe strong communities need wise people who know how to act,” Reynolds said. “This isn’t about building résumés. It’s about forming character, clarifying purpose, and helping people lead not for themselves, but for the community.”
The Fellowship draws inspiration from classical civic ideals and modern community challenges. Its unofficial motto, featured in the program’s new logo, is a Latin phrase with deep local meaning: Non sibi, sed civitati — Not for oneself, but for the community.
