This internship gave me the opportunity to work with a motivated, young team that has inspirational and creative ideas to change their community.

When I first applied for this internship, I created a personal Leadership Development Plan clearly outlining key skills that I wanted to refine and acquire. Amongst those skills were nonprofit management, business development, fundraising, and leadership in community development. Revisiting that plan now at the end of my internship, I feel like I got exposure to everything that I had set to gain during my experience. My expectations were certainly met and exceeded.When I first applied for this internship, I created a personal Leadership Development Plan clearly outlining key skills that I wanted to refine and acquire.
