A career in the non-profit sector can be one of the most rewarding – for both you and the people you are able to help. The daily role an intern in a non-profit organization can range from ordinary to unique. Some non-profit internships are very similar to a regular business internship – where interns handle general office responsibilities, marketing, accounting, and other general business duties. Other non-profit internships have highly specialized and unique responsibilities for their interns – such as organizing community events or helping to run a rural medical clinic. Depending on the type of internship you’re looking for, non-profit internships can oftentimes be a viable option for your career and personal goals.

Since non-profit is such a broad category, there is an almost endless amount of options for your career path. From domestic to abroad, community activism to museums, non-profit internships are some of the most popular and in demand internships. Luckily, with so many organizations, foundations, NGO’s, and groups, there are always a variety of internship opportunities across the country and even around the world.
