Development Intern position

We have posted a listing for a paid development intern at Idealist.org-- You can find it here.

We are growing as an organization, and we have been doing lots of institution-building-- becoming a trusted partner on GuideStar, collaborating more closely with our board members, working with more on-the-ground interns, etc.-- to make sure our work is sustainable. To these ends, and because we are currently starting a new capital campaign for a new school for Burmese refugees in northwestern Thailand, we are looking for a development, fundraising, and possibly grant-writing intern to help. Our full-time social workers are on the ground in Thailand, but we can provide intensive guidance and supervision in New York.

If you are interested in a specific component of our work (youth education with refugees, public health, etc.), we can also work with you on developing a project that speaks to your particular interests as well. The main purposes of this internship, however, would be to give you hands-on experience in development for a small nonprofit and to help us with our capital campaign.
