Institute for Nonprofits - Engagement Activities

Offer an internship or volunteer opportunity to a student

The Institute for Nonprofits encourages area nonprofits to seek interns and student volunteers to facilitate their work. Internships are designed to benefit both students and employers.

Receive free grant-writing services

Nonprofits can receive free grant-writing services from NCSU graduate students enrolled in a grant-writing course.

Host a field trip

The Institute organizes several field trips throughout the academic year for students in the Nonprofit Studies Minor. Students have various interests in the nonprofit community of North Carolina, and we want to help you connect with them. To schedule a field trip, e-mail Emily Daniels at nonprofitminor@gw.ncsu.edu.
