As a not-for-profit public charity the Endowment operates with one of the leanest staff structures of its peer group with the intent of maximizing financial investment in mission-related work on the ground.To augment staffing needs on an individual project and/or a short-term basis, we have instituted an on-going college internship program to attract bright minds from the university community.We have designed this program to provide real and substantial benefits to interns as well as to the Endowment.
For details on the Endowment's internship program, see the Information Sheet here (pdf).
