In partnership with Lipscomb University’s SALT (Serving & Learning Together) program and Cool People Care, the Center for Nonprofit Management is pleased to offer two lucky nonprofits—one smaller agency with an annual budget of $500,000 or less and one larger with an annual budget of more than $500,000—the chance to work with a student intern this summer on social media strategies. In order to qualify, an agency must:

* Be a member of CNM.
* Have a specific, stated goal for a social media intern (Example: Help implement Twitter as part of our overall communication strategy.)
* Provide one dedicated contact person for the intern

In order to be considered, please submit the following via email to Ellen Hingst, CNM’s Director of Education, at ellen@cnm.org:

1. Name of Nonprofit Organization

2. Annual Budget Size

3. Name of Contact Person

4. Specific Goal for Intern

The deadline for submission is Friday, May 29, 2009, at 4:00 p.m.

Representatives from CNM, the SALT program, and Cool People Care will review each submission for completeness. Each complete application will be placed one of two groups – a smaller agency group and a larger agency group. The agencies chosen to receive an intern will be randomly selected from each of these groups. Interns and their respective agencies will meet initially to determine internship goals and terms for the summer. Sam Davidson of Cool People Care will help guide this initial discussion.

If you have any questions, please contact Ellen Hingst at 259-3911, ext. 15 or ellen@cnm.org.
