We made it to the end of the third Leading EDGE Internship cohort! The summer kicked off with 13 dedicated employers looking to host 20 college students from schools in D.C., MD, VA and NYC for 10-week internships. In addition to hosting, employers signed up to work alongside The Nonprofit Alliance Foundation on our efforts to diversify the industry by creating nonprofit career opportunities for college students, including those in underrepresented and first-generation student populations, within the employer job market; and enable first job placements that can lead to a career path in the social good sector.

In fact, college graduates who had a mentor while they were students are almost twice as engaged with their professional work as those who didn't have a mentor, according to the 2018 Gallup Alumni Survey.
We made it to the end of the second Leading EDGE Internship cohort! It’s been a great summer working with these amazing students and employers. This year, seven dedicated employers hosted nine interns for ten weeks over the summer.
Why diversity? Why programs like TNPA’s Leading EDGE? Try asking it a different way: Why not? It’s a question many of us are asking after the Supreme Court’s decision to ban affirmative action in school admissions despite the conspicuous need for proactive efforts towards diversity, equity and inclusion in every aspect of our country’s educational institutions and workforce.
