Connecting students with mission-driven start-ups.

Participating social businesses in our Interns 4 Impact Program have access to a team dedicated to making the internship process as easy as possible. From the start, we’ll be there to help you craft your job description, meet your intern, and provide any needed troubleshooting along the way. Our connections to the top schools in the area streamline the selection process. Let us recruit for you!

It doesn’t stop there! We will then be available to support your intern through our community including personal & professional development.

Interns 4 Impact in Action

Our original goal was to have a pilot cohort of 2-5 students in the Summer of 2020. Instead, we placed 13 students from 6 schools with 7 different Impact Hub member businesses!

Out of those 7 businesses, 2 ended up hiring their summer intern on part or full time!
