"Thank you very much for all your help, support, guidance, and advice during my internship with Girls on the Run! I am really thankful for all your help and always willing to answer any questions that I had! I have learned so much about the nonprofit industry including volunteer recruitment, social media utilization, organization of large events, organizing vendor sales, fundraising, grant writing, marketing, how to use feedback surveys for improvement, and effective teamwork.  I am really thankful to have also learned from the team meetings and the Advisory Board Meeting! The meetings were both respectfully conducted, and everyone was very highly engaged in their work and the ongoing initiatives!" ~ Spring 2022 Intern Faryaal
