Get involved with our summer internship.
Donate professional attire.
Is your closet filled with rarely used professional clothing? Help our interns show up to their summer placement looking and feeling their best by donating to our ‘Dress Your Best’ closet. We accept gently worn clothes of all sizes and styles. Drop-off bins will be located:
May 11th - May 22nd
Energy Center, 1100 Poydras St, Ste. 1405
May 27th - June 12th
Pan American Life Center, 601 Poydras St, Floor 11
Network with our interns.
Each summer, we invite professionals from industries across New Orleans to get to know our interns as they practice and refine their personal pitch. You will have the opportunity to share about your professional life and career journey, meet these bright, talented young New Orleanians, and share feedback on their networking skills.
Our interns complete 50+ hours in communication, professionalism, and time management—so they’re ready to contribute to your team from day one. As a host, you gain access to emerging talent and extra project capacity for your team at no financial cost—just an investment of your time and mentorship that pays dividends long beyond the summer.
Host an intern.
A $25 donation can cover the cost of a monthly RTA Jazzy Pass for an intern. A $50 donation can cover the cost of uniforms, like steel-toed boots or scrubs.
