Internships

The Foodbank of Santa Barbara County is committed to being on the forefront in community leadership, by inviting members of our community into our organization and giving them significant responsibility and involvement in running programs, committees and organizational activities. By doing so, we can scale our activities to a degree sufficient to end hunger and transform the health of the community through good nutrition.

Compensation
Although internships are unpaid, we are happy to work with you and your college or university to meet course requirements/credits, paid work-study programs and/or your educational goals. Interns gain significant experience: 1) Supporting a wide range of programs and operational needs within the organization, 2) Understanding of the inner workings of nonprofits and the Foodbank system, 3) networking, interpersonal, and communication skills, and 4) significant learning opportunities and skills development in your field of interest.
