- Applicants self-determine the community and demonstrate their connection to it, the problem/issue they want to address, and their plan for building their leadership capacity to address it.
- The main requirement of the proposed learning plan is that it prepares the applicant to mobilize others in their identified community to find solutions to the identified problem/issue.
- Grants will be for a minimum of $25,000 and a maximum of $75,000. Funding will be paid out over two years.
- The Bush Foundation expects to have a long-term relationship with Bush Fellows.

- Bush Fellows will not be required to take a leave of absence from their employment in order to pursue the fellowship.
