过来人对此项目的好评

“I cannot say enough good things about this fellowship program. Between the unparalleled professional opportunities and experiences, the networking opportunities, built-in professional development, year-long mentoring, and a fantastic support system from both Cleveland Foundation staff and the fellowship cohort, I cannot imagine a better first step for anyone to experience in their careers.”

– Katie Brennan, 2016-17 Cleveland Foundation Public Service Fellow

克利夫兰有啥好的？

克利夫兰位于伊利湖南岸，凯霍加河的河口，昔日西储地的范围内，距离宾州100公里，是俄亥俄州凯霍加县的首府。开埠于1796年，历史上由于运河和铁路交汇，成为了制造业中心。在大型工业衰退后，成为了金融、保险和医疗中心。

根据《经济学人》在2005年进行的研究显示，克利夫兰与匹兹堡同列美国最佳居住城市。该市亦为美国本土最佳商务会议城市。当地居民称为 Clevelanders。该市的外号包括森林城、西储都会（Metropolis of the Western Reserve）、摇滚世界之都（The Rock 'n' Roll Capital of the World）、以及C城（C-Town）等。克利夫兰是一座体育名城，有职业篮球、棒球和橄榄球队；其中，克利夫兰骑士队（Cleveland Cavaliers）尤其出名，著名球星“小皇帝”詹姆斯就在这打球，获得2016年NBA总冠军！

最近，克利夫兰被国家地理杂志评为2018年世界上必去的21个地方之一（美国只有三个）。

Cleveland is among 21 destinations cited by the magazine in its December/January issue, and one of just three in the United States. Other destinations on the list: Madagascar; Dublin, Ireland; Oaxaca, Mexico; plus San Antonio, Texas, and Oahu, Hawaii in the United States.

The destinations are divided into three categories: Cities, Nature and Culture. Cleveland is one of seven entries in the Culture category.

The entry on Cleveland begins: "Onion-domed churches and cold-brew cafes on streets a-flicker with gas porch lights might summon images of Krakow or Budapest. But this is Cleveland. The big-boned Ohio city built by Eastern European immigrants and Midwestern moxie ripples with new cultural energy."
