GWU NET IMPACT FELLOWSHIP
** Fellowship application now available **
Click here for 2009 Fellowship Application
Every year, Net Impact of GWU offers a Summer Fellowship. The fellowship allows graduate students to accept unpaid or low-paying internships that focus on solving the world’s toughest social, environmental and economic problems.
Who can receive the Fellowship?
Applications will be available April 1st and all Net Impact members are eligible to apply. An independent group of three judges (a professor, a professional Net Impact member, and an alumni) will judge the applications and choose a recipient of the funding. The winner of the Net Impact Summer Fellowship should have an internship with a nonprofit organization, government agency, or other related area, using their business skills to advance socially and environmentally innovative projects.
Where is the money coming from?
The money comes from a variety of sources. GWU Net Impact is holding a silent auction. We are actively seeking donations for the auction - gift certificates, popular items, etc - please contact Dawn Marie Mancini at dmancini@gwmail.gwu.edu or Alex Chaikin achaikin@gwmail.gwu.edu if you would like to contribute in any way.
2008 Pictures from Fellowship Fundraising Event
As you look at these pictures, you might notice paper airplanes hanging in the background. You may ask yourself 'Why are there paper airplanes hanging from the ceiling?' Also, you may ask yourself 'Where does that highway go to?' or 'Where is that large automobile?' Well we don't have the answer to those questions, but we can tell you that the paper airplanes were reused after a Operations Management class required us to fold hundreds of sheets of paper into paper airplanes. Some students thought it was a little wasteful, so they gathered them up, and we used them as decorations for the party.
