Giving 101 Internship

Posted by Angela Valenti On 11:36:00 AM

Giving101, an Atlanta-based nonprofit that educates and inspires people to give back through several unique programs, is currently seeking a paid Nonprofit Management Intern to work 30-40 hrs/wk this summer. The intern will help plan our Expedition Give event on September 10, 2011 in addition to supporting other programs. The intern will learn and apply marketing, nonprofit event management, and communications skills.
Think of Expedition Give as The Amazing Race with a unique charity twist. In this five-hour scavenger hunt, teams of two will race all over the city collecting items, taking pictures, and completing community service projects to earn points. At the end of the race, the teams with the most points take home some really cool prizes. Applicants can learn more about the Expedition Give event and see pictures from our past races at www.giving101.org/expeditiongive.
Giving101 was started in 2006 by four Georgia Tech alumni who graduated between 2002 and 2009. Because the organization is entirely volunteer-run, the intern will work under the supervision of Giving101’s Board of Directors instead of with a full-time employee. In addition, since Giving101 has no permanent office space, the intern must be responsible and self-motivated enough to work remotely the majority of the time.
