2024 Hometown Internships

ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE

A Hometown Intern is a current college student who has completed at least one year of schooling and lives at home for the summer. Some of the following qualities may serve them on their journey: curiosity, open-mindedness, flexibility, a desire to see their hometown through fresh eyes, and a drive to contribute to the future of their community. The Hometown Intern and their supervisor will begin their summer together attending an educational retreat where they will connect with their peers and be immersed in Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD). Over the course of the summer, Hometown Interns will work alongside their supervisor and other members of their local affiliated fund on a mission to discover and unleash the assets in their community.
