The Waterkeeper Alliance Internship Program is an exciting opportunity for undergraduate, graduate, and law school students looking to gain experience working in a fast-growing grassroots environmental nonprofit organization. Interns have the chance to learn what it is like to work in an environmental nonprofit setting while focusing on specific projects and initiatives in various departments. Interns work under the supervision of staff members to further the Waterkeeper Alliance mission of protecting drinkable, fishable, swimmable water worldwide.
Waterkeeper Alliance has no open internship positions at this time. We encourage you to consider joining us in the fall or spring semesters. Please check back in August for new internship opportunities.
