Way of Life

In 2017, JM Schapiro and Nate Lowentheil co-founded Baltimore Homecoming, a nonprofit initiative building an alumni network of Baltimore’s most accomplished expats and alumni from around the U.S. and the world. The initiative is centered around a semi-annual event, aptly named Baltimore Homecoming, that is designed to introduce Baltimore’s expat-alumni community to the people, leaders, and doers building a brighter future for Baltimore in efforts to spark new partnerships, collaborations, philanthropy, and investment for our city.
