Foundation offering paid LGBT internships

The R. Scott Hitt Foundation is offering funding for qualified candidates with the vision to be future leaders in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender movement.
The pro-LGBT sponsoring organization that the interns choose to apply with will receive funding to compensate your internship position while you strengthen your resume and gain valuable skills toward becoming a leader of the future.
Pro-LGBT non-profits are encouraged to identify prospective interns and cooperatively submit an application packet.
The post-graduate internship is called the Scott Hitt Internship in Leadership Development. It is geared toward post-graduate students with a strong academic record. The grant is $20,000 for a 40-hour-per-week, seven to nine month internship at an LGBT non-profit. The applicant contacts host organization they want to work at and co-develops a successful curriculum encompassing these key elements: communications, fundraising, board development and grassroots policy. The deadline is May 7.
The undergraduate internship, known as the A.N.G.L.E. Southern California Internship, is a $4,000 grant for an 8-week internship at an LGBT non-profit in Southern California. The deadline is April 16.
