Career Services Unpaid Internships

Unpaid Internships - Matching Gift Opportunity!

Internships redefine education by offering hands-on learning, but financial barriers often keep deserving students from these crucial experiences. The Career Services Unpaid Internship Fund breaks down these barriers. It supports students pursuing unpaid internships in fields like nonprofits and government agencies, providing financial relief for tuition credits and living expenses.

Your donation directly impacts students, empowering them to focus on their internships instead of juggling multiple jobs to make ends meet. For programs like social work, where internships are vital but often unpaid, your support ensures equal access to these opportunities, regardless of financial need.

Your contribution here directly changes lives in our community, opening doors of opportunity for aspiring professionals. An anonymous donor is matching all gifts to the Career Services Unpaid Internship Fund dollar-for-dollar up to $1,500 on Giving Tuesday. Make your gift to keep all internships accessible for students.

Your donation to these funds isn't just financial support; it's an investment in a student's journey toward success. Let's make internships accessible to all Blugold students, creating a level playing field where financial limitations no longer hinder their potential.
