Class of 2008 Internship Fund: 34 Students Supported




by

The Internship Fund raised an estimated $175,000 last year to support 34 students who worked in the nonprofit and public sectors this past summer. Thanks to higher Food for Thought sales, enthusiastic support for student led fundraisers, and continued alumni contributions, the amount raised was among the highest of the past five years. Each applicant received, on average, $4,718 from the Internship Fund. Total funding per applicant, which includes employer contribution, was, on average, $9,037. With the highest level of employer contributions ever, each dollar raised was leveraged to benefit more students.
