Charlotte Mac Kay is a communication specialist for Resettlement and Food Insecurity in Anchorage, Alaska. She graduated from SMCM in 2022 with majors in political science and English, and shortly after became an AmeriCorps VISTA participant at Fresh International Gardens—a refugee-led agricultural cooperative in Anchorage. She now leads content and story creation around resettlement, food insecurity, and other areas of work at Catholic Social Services, a leading nonprofit that hosts Alaska’s only refugee resettlement agency. While at SMCM, she was an active member of the offshore sailing team and editor-in-chief of The Point News. If awarded a Fulbright in Greece, Mac Kay will analyze the ways in which migrants’ planned pathways influence the supportive services they engage, in the hopes of helping to develop a holistic global model of supportive services for migrant populations in the U.S. and abroad.
