Paid summer internship

PAID SUMMER JOBS WITH PENNENVIRONMENT!

The Fund for the Public Interest is a national non-profit organization that works to build support for progressive organizations across the country.  We've run campaigns for USPIRG, Environment America, the Human Rights Campaign, the Sierra Club, Greenpeace, and Fair Share Alliance.

This summer, we are running an office in Philadelphia, PA to build support for PennEnvironment's campaign to save the bees.

Millions of bees are dying off every year, putting our ecosystem and food supply at risk. Bees pollinate most of our food: everything from apples and broccoli to coffee beans and chocolate. 

One of the major reasons is a relatively new type of pesticides called neonicotinoids, or "neonics," which are about 6000 times more toxic to bees than DDT. Scientists, farmers and beekeepers have sounded the alarm, and now PennEnvironment is running a campaign to educate the public and build public support in order to get the EPA to ban these dangerous chemicals. 

This is your chance to spend your summer working for a great cause, while gaining valuable campaign leadership experience and making on average between $9-15/hour.
