This past fall DonorsChoose.org posted a company profile on InternMatch, seeking winter interns. A few weeks later we were matched!
Here is our Logistics and Business Relations Intern, Joesph, in his own words:
While I am an intern and not a full-time staff member, I have been given real projects and been able to play a significant role in DonorsChoose.org’s mission to best serve teachers and their needs. Analyzing this data helps the organization make more informed decisions about how to get the right resources at the lowest possible cost.

The mission of our internship program is to provide college students with exposure to and work experience in the nonprofit sector. Because DonorsChoose.org is still a relatively new organization, interns have the unique opportunity to contribute to its growth and scalability.
