Community Fellowship
The Inasmuch Foundation Community Fellowship program connects college undergraduate and graduate students with nonprofit organizations in Oklahoma City for a paid summer internship.
How It Works
Fellows are matched with a participating nonprofit based on their application answers and areas of interest. Host sites do NOT need to be a current Inasmuch Foundation grantee to apply, and there is no cost to the host site for participation in the Community Fellowship. Fellows should expect to perform a wide range of tasks dependent on placement. Fellows earn $17.50/hour and work 40 hours a week during the summer.
Who It’s For
Any college undergraduate or graduate student may apply, but preference is given to freshmen, sophomores, and juniors who will continue their education in the fall. Fellows should be passionate and hard-working, with an interest in nonprofit work and a commitment to making OKC a better place to live, work, and play. Commitment to the entire length of the program is expected.
