Internship Opportunities

GRANT WRITING INTERN

The Grant Writing Intern position at AIDS Services of Dallas (ASD) is an exceptional opportunity for individuals interested in pursuing a career in grant writing or nonprofit development. Working closely with the Communications and Development Manager, the intern will learn about the grant writing process, from researching potential funding sources to submitting grant applications, and gain experience in tracking and managing grant applications and awards. This internship is ideal for students or recent graduates who are passionate about ASD’s mission to provide housing and supportive services to people living with HIV/AIDS. As an intern with ASD, the Grant Writing Intern will develop skills in grant writing, research, and communication while working independently and remotely, which will help build time-management and self-motivation skills.

The intern will also learn about the day-to-day operations of a nonprofit organization, particularly in the areas of development and fundraising. With the guidance and support of the Communications and Development Manager, the intern will gain valuable experience that can be applied to future endeavors in grant writing or nonprofit development, making a positive impact in the community.

CHILDREN'S SUMMER PROGRAM

Each year ASD chooses one intern from college and one from high school to fill the roles as Children’s Activities Coordinator and Assistant, respectively. These roles are responsible for the development and management of summer activities for ASD’s youth. Their responsibilities include planning, coordinating, implementing, and facilitating a summer program that helps build self-esteem, social skills, and provides hands-on learning experiences.
