FELLOW SPOTLIGHT: 

From IGNITE Fellow To The White House: Anna Del Castillo

“We Need More Equitable Representation in This Country, And We Need it Now.”

Anna Del Castillo served as IGNITE’s Boston fellow in 2020. She studied Racial Justice and Healing at Harvard Divinity 


School and is now working on DEI initiatives at the White House. 

She first attended the National Young Women Run conference in D.C., and felt inspired by seeing other women own their political power. She initially wanted to join a collective of women running for office or who were interested in leadership. For Anna, becoming a Fellow was about amplifying the voices of historically and intentionally excluded people 

in politics. “People who have traditionally been left out of the political process, largely women of color and low-income folks should be given the tools and resources they need to successfully run for office. We need more equitable representation in this country, and we need it now,” Anna says. As the Boston Fellow, she hosted several events around Boston that sparked a similar interest in other young women, helping them realize their own potential. “Being a Fellow feels like being a connector. There’s this really important role of connecting other people with important resources, with other young women and with mentors who can provide guidance.” And from there, Anna stepped into her role as a community organizer, facilitator and now Deputy Director of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA) at the White House. IGNITE has prepared her to lead with authenticity, recognize the power of collective organizing, and center equity in all that she does.
