Internships at DoSomething.org!

 
 
DoSomething.org is the premiere organization for teens and social change. Interning at DoSomething.org is a great way to learn the ins and outs of the not-for-profit world, work in a fun and young office environment, and get great work experience. We give our interns tons of responsibility and are also known to have brownie bake-offs every once in awhile. Our office (complete with disco ball and Pac-Man machine) is located in Manhattan, NYC.

 

The deadline to apply for fall internships has already passed. Stay tuned for spring opportunities which will be posted mid-fall! Summer positions will be open in the early spring.
