Share your analysis & research skills! Second Harvest Heartland has a robust internship program, utilizing 50-70 interns per year across several departments. With the growth of this program came a variance around stipend payments. We are seeking a skilled volunteer to do an internal audit of stipend amounts as well as interview our Internship Supervisors and recent applicants to gather opinions around stipend payments (both amount and process). In addition to the internal review, we would like to get an understanding of how other local non-profits pay interns through conducting research. Once complete, we would like a summary of findings & potential recommendations.
We want to maintain our reputation and competitive edge in the internship field. By assessing our status, we will be able to create a plan to move forward as a leading internship program.
Skills needed/previous experience desired:
- High level of communications skills, both written and verbal
- Interview and research experience
- Analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data
Deliverables:
- Consolidated results from an internal audit of stipend amounts and experiences from current and past Internship Supervisors.
- Document applicable findings from interviews with local non-profits as well as intern applicants who have turned down a position because of stipend amount.
- Recommendations for payment moving forward.
Estimated time commitment: 20-25 hours
- Time of the day: Flexible but interviews will likely occur during business hours
- Project completion date: Completed by early July to inform budget decisions
How to apply:
- Please apply through our website 2harvest.org/volunteer, or contact Paige Stein at pstein@2harvest.org or 651-209-7953.

Mission Statement
The mission of Second Harvest Heartland is to end hunger through community partnerships. At Second Harvest Heartland, our volunteer partners do more than enrich our work, they ground us to our mission of ending hunger together. We integrate volunteers into all aspects of creating and delivering solutions that will free our neighbors of hunger.
Description
More than a food bank, Second Harvest Heartland is a leading partner in the policies and programs that work to end hunger, like SNAP, school meals and senior nutrition programs, and we’re an innovator in the areas where food can be the solution, like FOODRx and Minnesota Central Kitchen.
Second Harvest Heartland is a member of Feeding America, a national network of more than 200 food banks serving every state in the United States. Membership means access to millions of pounds of surplus food and grocery donations from manufacturers and producers throughout the country.
Working with our network of partners, volunteers and donors as well as people like you, our 90,000+ square feet of dry, refrigerator and freezer space is constantly accepting and distributing donations. Our fleet of trucks travels nearly half a million miles a year, picking up food donations and delivering them to local food shelves, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, senior community centers and children's after school programs. Each year we distributed more than 100 million meals to our partners in hunger-relief. Learn more at 2harvest.org.
