If you’re interested in marketing/communications and the nonprofit sector, this just may be the perfect internship for you! Cascade Volunteers is a small nonprofit with an incredible mission. We strive to make our internships a period of growth and development for our interns, with weekly check-in meetings, opportunities to write grants, funding for professional development courses, and the chance to take on special interest projects. We ask that all interns devote at least 6 months to the position, but many stay for a year or more – we invest a significant amount of time into training our interns and preparing them for the workforce, and we ask that you invest some time in our organization as well. We hope to hear from you!
