Summer 2009 Internship Opportunity

Are you interested in a paid internship that will give you the opportunity to gain valuable work experience in Washington, D.C.? The Koch Internship Program may be for you.

Come spend the summer interning at the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation and gain the valuable skills that will help equip you to become a non-profit leader and entrepreneur. During the program, interns develop the knowledge, skills and experience necessary for careers with market-oriented think tanks, policy institutes, and other non-profit organizations. This hands-on experience gives interns the chance to explore the non-profit sector, while applying Market-Based management®, a management philosophy that emphasizes long-term success. Summer internships are part-time and paid.

Below is some program feedback given by interns:

"Interning at the Foundation introduced me to some amazing non-profit opportunities that I didn't even know existed, and after working here, I've gained a useful understanding about non-profit management and leadership. It's definitely a unique opportunity...and it's paid!"

"Excellent program! I was very impressed with how much the Foundation invests in maximizing the interns' experience during the program. I was able to learn and accomplish more than I would have in a typical internship."
