What People Say About Us

I’d never thought I would be in a close, trusting relationship with my co-workers, that I wouldn’t have to stress about “orders from above”, that I would be able to use my privilege, experience and education to create an impact in the lives of those that need it. I am extremely proud of being able to help create the first waves of change, and I'm so happy to be able to do so with people I genuinely love spending time with.

Shaindl Keshen

International Development & Digital Engagement Intern

Working as a research Volunteer has been an awesome experience. I thought I’d have a hard time adjusting to the work because of my straightlaced engineering background, but the supportive team helps me feel good. I’ve become close friends with these team members, creating a healthy, easygoing workspace which was a new experience. And the best part is that I have learned so much about professional narratives, planning, and the systematic research process.

Research and Development Intern from Columbia University | SIPA

Working as a Partnership Development Lead has not only been rewarding professionally but also fulfilling personally as I know that with my work, I am making an impact in the lives of less fortunate children and young people. This thought keeps me going everyday.
