Are you passionate about disaster resilience and helping communities save lives, livelihoods, and futures? The Global Resilience Foundation (GRF) is seeking a creative, forward-thinking intern to help shape our digital presence from the ground up.
This isn’t just building a website. It is a collaborative, strategic exploration alongside foundation leadership to define how GRF communicates, engages stakeholders, and drives real-world impact. We want to open an interactive conversation with you rather than hand down a rigid task list.
What You Will Do (The “Doing”)
Strategic Exploration: Work directly with GRF leadership to define site goals, narrative direction, and key messaging.
Multi-Audience Engagement: Design tailored digital pathways that speak to diverse groups—including communities served, donors, corporate partners, service providers, and sponsors.
Web Presence & Rollout: Develop and launch a compelling, user-friendly digital presence that expands on our core mission (see www.grfinc.org).
Community Research: Conduct independent information collection to help GRF meet communities at any stage of disaster preparedness and recovery.
What You Will Learn & Gain (The “Learning”)
Direct mentorship and reliable guidance from non-profit leaders.
A complete portfolio piece demonstrating end-to-end strategy, brand communications, and web design.
Hands-on experience translating stakeholder needs into effective digital communications.
A supportive space where your unique perspective actively shapes GRF’s strategy.
Who You Are
Skilled or interested in web design, UI/UX, or strategic brand communications.
Moved by the mission of disaster preparedness, resilience planning, and community action.
An independent thinker eager to combine structured research with creative execution.
