At my internship site, I’ve had the opportunity to work in an extremely diverse community with multicultural and bilingual children and staff. As a development intern, I’ve been able to assist in corporate, foundation and government grant writing processes as well as sit in on meetings with the CEO and the rest of the executive team. The things I’ve learned here will make me much more appealing to potential employers. It is rare to have the opportunity to acquire the skills I’m gaining now, and none of this would be possible without my internship through The Washington Center.
