Student interns are few in comparison to the organizations that need them, want them and have no concept of how internships work for college students. Plan for your internship program as you would for your fundraising needs, volunteer program or board development. Provide one point of contact. There is no magic trick here.

With this on my mind, we turned to the awesome NTEN Community for volunteer testers, filling all eight testing slots within a couple hours of posting the invite on our blog; sorry again to everyone we had to turn away.

I'll get a chance to see Miles again at this year's NTC Conference and some lucky local nonprofit in DC will have Miles as a volunteer for the NTC Day of Service ! You could argue there might be some overlapping values that FOSS and Fair Trade share, but otherwise they're not at all the same thing and the comparison doesn't work for me.

The more data points you have on your donors—from email and street addresses to job titles and company names, giving capacity, philanthropic history, contact preferences, and general interest—the more you will be able to target your asks and create fundraising campaigns that speak directly to them. That tends to rub them the wrong way.

You want to have a connection with the donor, with the volunteer. Intentional authenticity, it results in increased volunteer engagement. Because I sound like a broken record saying this, I’m going to say it again, volunteers make your very best donors. So this is prime time for you to re-engage those volunteers.
