We run a very robust workforce educational internship program for high school and college students, allowing them to get hands-on experience they cannot get anywhere else. We run both a summer session and school-year session and host about 75 students each year! This program changes lives and is very in demand. We are seeking educational grant writers because we keep this program FREE to all students but it costs us a significant portion of our budget to fund this. Grant writers will help us support this vital and important program.
This can be a virtual opportunity, though you are also welcome to volunteer on site at 3198 Main Road, Tiverton, RI 02878. Grant writers will work with the Executive Director.
