Internship with the Miracle Foundation

Email this completed application and your resume to Kat@MiracleFoundation.org by Thursday, December 13th. You will hear back from us by Wednesday, December 19th. Please include your full name and the application cycle in the email subject line (ex: Jane Smith Spring 2018 Internship Application).

Since our founding on Mother’s Day in 2000, the Miracle Foundation has taken a stand for orphaned children. Our “Child First” approach is multi-faceted, collaborative and community-based:

  • 80% of children living in institutions have a living relative. We make every effort to reunite these children with their birth family, if possible.
  • For abandoned children without family — our measurable, systematic method ensures that children are loved, educated, healthy and safe until they transition to a permanent family.
  • We actively collaborate with governments, other non-profits and local family-strengthening organizations to transform systems and give children a voice.

Our interns gain an inside opportunity to learn how to run a nonprofit that makes an impact for the world’s orphaned children.

Responsibilities vary, but are generally in one of the following areas: Office Administration, Development, and Programs. We do our best to find work that suits your interests and develops your expertise.

  • Our Office Administration Intern will work with our Systems Manager to complete various administrative tasks, create process documents, track departmental progress, and more.
  • Our Development Intern will work with our Development Coordinator to plan events, analyze fundraising data, develop fundraising campaigns, research funding prospects, and more.
  • Our Programs Intern will work with our Director of Global Programs and Program Coordinator to input and analyze data, create and improve programs, and more.

Requirements: We offer both formal (for class credit) and informal internships. Interns are expected to donate at least 10 hours/week of their time and exemplify the following qualities:

  • Global perspective, belief in our mission, and a passion for making a difference
  • Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
  • High level of computer proficiency, including Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
  • Organized and detail-oriented, with effective time-management skills
  • Strong work ethic, the ability to follow through, and a willingness to do what needs to be done, no matter how large or small
  • Dependable, self-motivated, and conscientious
  • Outgoing and enthusiastic, with a positive attitude
  • Professional, prompt, and dresses appropriately
  • Must be 18 or older.

If you have any questions, email or call our Systems Manager Kat Jones at Kat@MiracleFoundation.org or (512)-329-8635
