STRIVE DC is a 501(c)(3) organization that provides free employment-readiness training, job-placement assistance and two years of post- placement support to chronically unemployed DC metro residents.

STRIVE DC has need for both writing and editing interns. We need a writing intern to begin a success story journal for us. STRIVE DC's case to funders is best made through recounting the success of our graduates. Having an intern create this journal for us would make a world of difference in soliciting individual donors. (We are also seeking a photographer to capture images to "illustrate" the journal). Graduate student preferred for this project.

We need someone to also help edit our grant proposals. This person would also help us create a specific style for our proposals and other documents.

Our website is currently under construction, however you can learn more about STRIVE DC at our web page on the Catalogue for Philanthropy website at:
