Lincoln Literacy, an award-winning, community-based nonprofit, seeks a communications intern for the spring term. Although this is an unpaid internship, it is a rich experiential opportunity which can enhance the resume and portfolio of a successful applicant without overtaxing a student's time.
The intern will work with senior staff and board members to:
> Visit our learning sites to seek out stories to be conveyed in images, video, and print.
> Conceive and produce a graphical design for the annual report in February.
> Produce graphics, flyers, web content, social media content, and other tools to market our spring Global Cabaret fundraising event in March.
> Work with executive director on a multi-platform marketing campaign for our Give to Lincoln Day appeal in April.
Excellent graphics abilities, creativity, and a willingness to learn about a nonprofit agency and find ways to convey its story and messages are essential. The internship will average 4 – 6 hours per week, but double in certain critical weeks, with a reduced schedule by advance arrangement for demanding academic weeks or breaks.
An intern who performs well in this role may earn letters of recommendation and/or a certificate of completion. Interested? Send cover note and resume as soon as possible to: info@lincolnliteracy.org.
