PLEASE NOTE: PHLF has already accepted 10 college interns for the Summer of 2012 on a volunteer unpaid basis. If you would like to be added to a waiting list, then follow the procedure below. Openings are available in the Fall of 2012.
PHLF does not offer paid internships. We do welcome high school or college/university students throughout the year on a VOLUNTEER basis. As a volunteer, you set your own schedule.
Staff members will complete any required college or university evaluation forms so volunteer interns can receive academic credit for their time with us.
If you are interested in volunteering, e-mail your resume to Louise Sturgess, Executive Director, louise@phlf.org. In your e-mail, please state:
- on what dates you want your volunteer internship to begin and end, and how many hours each week you are able to volunteer.
- which day(s) of the week you would like to volunteer.
- if you will be driving to our offices at Station Square or using public transportation. (We will give you a parking pass so you do not need to pay parking expenses.)
Student volunteers usually help with educational programs (tours, publications, special events), are invited to attend various staff meetings, and are able to visit historic sites which we are involved in restoring. Students with architectural training can assist in our Main Street and neighborhood revitalization programs.
