🎓🌟 Congratulations to Jessica on her high school graduation! For the past three years, Jessica has been an invaluable intern at Park City Community Foundation, where she shadowed various office roles, performed clerical duties, translated marketing materials into Spanish, and supported community events. Jessica is proud of her friendships and connections in high school, finding a strong support system that motivated her. A highlight of her internship was attending the Solomon Fund (now Youth United) events, where she saw firsthand the impact of our work on families and kids. Starting as a volunteer and evolving into an intern, she loved helping by translating, handing out flyers, and witnessing the collective effort of staff, donors, and the community. This fall, Jessica will attend the University of Utah, exploring majors in Business, International Studies, and Computer Science. She plans to stay involved in her community and continue making a positive impact. Jessica, your passion, work ethic, and dedication have been truly inspiring. Thank you for everything, and best of luck at the University of Utah! 🌟📚 #Congratulations #ThankYou

Make a difference this Giving Tuesday! As a first-generation college student, I was fortunate to receive support from many. As you reflect on your lived experience, I suspect you also benefited from the kindness of another. This Giving Tuesday, I’m asking you to join me by going to https://lnkd.in/de4vhBs5 to Pay It Forward. Think about the third-year college student navigating internship costs, the single-parent dealing with unexpected medical expenses, or the first-generation student with a disability striving to complete college. Each of these stories is real, and together, we can help make their journey a little easier. Together, our collective generosity will help students pursuing their dreams by providing the financial support they need to focus on their studies.

Internships are a crucial part of a public policy education; look no further that Olivia Soolman, Public Policy '27, as an example of that. Olivia was a Policy and Advocacy intern at RCAP Solutions, a non-profit community development organization based in Worcester, MA. During her internship, Olivia used her writing skillset to work on local policy issues, including water quality and maternal health in Massachusetts, and her experience writing in her undergraduate courses helped make the transition to applied policy work that much easier: "Having already written policy papers for Controversies in Public Policy and Public Policy, I felt very prepared to thoroughly research a policy topic and write a white paper for my internship." Want to learn more about internships at the School of Public Policy?

For the Spring 2024 semester, CPF POSC 395 Policy Research Internship students explored how eminent domain affected communities in south Los Angeles, especially Black communities within California’s 37th Congressional district. Students examined its impacts on land ownership, generational wealth, and community prosperity. They presented their extensive research and recommendations to our partner, Congresswoman Sydney Kamlager-Dove. Sofia Connors, a sophomore majoring in Political Science, said, "I was grateful to take part in the POSC 395 Policy Research Internship. I learned about the ways the government has historically used eminent domain to target minority communities in Los Angeles, segregating them and gentrifying their communities. This internship taught me about the foundations Los Angeles was built upon, that many fail to acknowledge. It is rewarding to know we could be making an impact on policy, potentially getting reparations for the countless Black families displaced by eminent domain and had their homes taken." A huge shout out to Sofia Connors, Sydney Crowley, Christian Haro, Juan Herdoiza, and Bright Lee for your outstanding work on this project!

Hi friends! It’s my birthday! Looking for a way to commemorate this momentous occasion?! I hope you support my nonprofit -- Florida Community Innovation! At FCI, we empower young innovators to build things that make Florida better, like the Florida Community Resource Map (connecting people to food banks, job resources, and more), an anti-human trafficking training certification, an environmental sustainability messaging campaign, and more. I think what makes us different is that (1) we build our projects with communities and we iterate + research to make sure we're building solutions that actually work and (2) we put young leaders at the center of our work. Trust me — we couldn’t be working harder to serve people across Florida. Today alone, I met with awesome friends and colleagues from the Mount Dora Community Trust, the Holden Heights community, and Save Miami — all for inspiring, “Save the World” tech projects built by and with our students. We've worked with a few universities now, and the money I'm specifically trying to raise this birthday is for our University of Florida internship program. This program is special. I'm trying to raise enough money now to completely fund all the students this fall, who are enrolled in in an internship class and/or working for us. They get course credit AND get paid for meaningful work!! When we started this program, we were trying to give first generation college students and other students who may not normally have access to tech internships a chance -- to find paid work that actually moves their career goals forward, while helping Florida at the same time. These students inspire me everyday. They come up with innovative ideas, they work hard, and they truly have hearts for service. It'd mean the world if you could support us! We have more students each year who are interested than we can afford to pay, and with public service, the more, the merrier. Support us and be a part of the change you want to see!! You can give money to support a student, and you can also volunteer your time by joining our weekly class, engaging in one-on-one mentoring, and more. Learn more on https://lnkd.in/gM_-EBTy. Thank you for making a difference!

Today, a new report from the Center for an Urban Future and The Bronx Community Foundation outlines actionable proposals from 50 influential Bronxites to enhance the borough's economic and social landscape. One notable idea, originating from our Hostos President Daisy Cocco De Filippis, is the creation of a year-long internship or work-study program for CUNY students in the Bronx. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between academia and practical experience while bolstering economic development and opportunities for Bronx residents. The report underscores the Bronx's pivotal role in New York City's economy, highlighting its substantial job growth and the imperative to address persistent challenges in affordability and access to essential services for its residents. Read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/ewZAFsrZ.
