Internships Abroad and The Leadership Program

The SHARE Institute fosters cross-cultural modes of sharing ideas and technical know-how by making a difference in your community and globally. This program is specifically designed to mentor young women and men by introducing them to international development issues. The program provides global leadership skills, domestically and internationally. Participants may also be drawn from the general public based on expressed interest in global experiences. This internship program is particularly focused on projects that promote health, education and economic well-being. There are no fees for internships conducted at the SHARE Institutes office in Fair Oaks, California, however, interns pay for thier trips abroad.

To become an intern, enrollment in SHARE's Leadership Program, a fundamental part of SHARE's local, domestic, and international work, is a requirement. After you enroll and attend the orientation for the leadership program, the president of the SHARE Institute will discuss with you what part or parts of the internship program you are interested in. While most SHARE Interns prefer to work locally, within their own community, in endeavors such as our Cultural Awareness Program, other prefer to travel internationally and participate in our International Internship Program, which is based in such places as India, Nicaragua, and Kenya.

SHARE's Internships are flexible, fun, and a good way to spend your time, make a difference in your community and around the world, and build your resume.
