ORGANIZATION: Rebuilding Alliance

Rebuilding Alliance is looking for a talented intern to assist the Advocacy Program Manager. This intern will help with researching possible partnerships, potential funding sources, grantwriting, maintenance of a spreadsheet of relevant information about Congressional offices, scheduling meetings and conference calls with sister organizations and government offices, social media, posting on our online discussion forum, and all sorts of other things!

The ideal candidate is someone who can handle multiple tasks at once, and can change direction at the drop of a hat - our work is to respond swiftly to events on the ground in the West Bank. The Advocacy Intern should be a self-motivated problemsolver who is completely capable of taking initiative and figuring things out. This position will look great on a resume!

About Rebuilding Alliance

Location:

50 Woodside Plaza Ste. 627, Redwood City, CA 94061, US

Mission Statement

Rebuilding Alliance is dedicated to advancing equal rights for the Palestinian people through education, advocacy, and support that assures Palestinian families the right to a home, schooling, economic security, safety, and a promising future.

Description

We learned early-on that to build in war-torn communities one must partner locally with non-governmental organizations that hold the trust of the local community and maintain the highest standards of fiscal and personal integrity.

Everyone who works at Rebuilding Alliance is committed to building peace and justice through programs that make a tangible difference and together, we do our best to make RA a great place to work. Many who have joined RA as interns or in entry-level jobs have gone on to their dream-job or pursued advanced degrees.

One of our past interns wrote the following:

"I always talk about interning with Rebuilding Alliance as one of my most important, challenging and formative work experiences, especially when I'm in interviews. You asked and expected big things of me right away, and I'm so grateful for that - coordinating a teleconference series, making phone calls to important peacekeepers, offering insights in team meetings, updating our internet presence. These are skills that I value so highly, and that I'm sure will be so important as I enter this industry that is entirely new to me. I would also like to stay in touch with you and Rebuilding Alliance and help in any way I can in the coming years, whether through donations or volunteering my time when I'm back in the Bay Area."
