Koch Internship Program

The Koch Internship Program combines individualized education with hands-on work experience to empower social entrepreneurs to drive their own careers and make a positive contribution right away.  While in the ten-week program, interns benefit from a hybrid education/work experience: they engage in Stand Together Fellowships professional development programming each Wednesday from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET with their peers and spend the rest of the week gaining valuable professional experience at one of our many partner organizations. Full-time participants receive a $4,500 stipend while part-time participants receive a $2,700 stipend (attending Wednesday programming is required for both part-time and full-time participants). The training provided by Stand Together Fellowships focuses on three pillars:

• Learning ST Fellowship’s vision for social change and connecting with our network of collaborators
• Discovering and developing your unique aptitudes and strengths
• Learning the guiding principles of Market Based Management

Each intern is mentored by a seasoned professional and works on a capstone project on what matters most to them.
