Identify Community Service Internships for Harvard Undergrads

Summer 2009

 

The Harvard Club of Washington DC calls on club members to identify community service organizations in the DC metro area that would welcome applications from Harvard undergraduates for summer internships. This serves the Club's goal of providing members with opportunities to lend their talents and energy for the benefit of the communities in which we live.

 

Harvard undergraduates who obtain a community service summer internship are eligible to apply for the Harvard Club of Washington, D.C.'s Community Service Fellowships for financial support and other opportunities through the Center for Public Interest Careers. For more information see
