Fieldnotes: Blogging on UNICEF's child survival work in the field

Summer is nearly over

We can always tell that summer is nearly over when the temperatures start falling, the sun sets a little earlier, and our summer interns wrap up their work and say goodbye. Tomorrow is the last day for our last intern in the Volunteer and Community Partnerships (VCP) Department. Pictured here are Ay-Nur, Josh, Anna and their supervisor, Rachael.

Today the interns made a presentation on the work that they have been doing this summer. The VCP Department supports our Online Volunteer Center, the UNICEF Campus Initiative, our relationship with Key Club and Circle K, and others. From working on the CNN Viewing Parties, to supporting Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF and the Tap Project, to developing resources for our Campus Clubs and answering volunteer inquires, and much, much more—our interns not only completed a great deal of work, they helped our department achieve our objectives by producing quality products and resources.

We are sorry to see them go, but are very appreciative for all the work that they have accomplished!

If you are interested in an internship, they are available throughout the year in multiple departments within the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. We’re currently accepting applications for fall interns. Enthusiastic, independent individuals, with an interest in international development will be most successful. If you are interested, please email a letter of interest and resume to hr@unicefusa.org.
