Interns
help us to build friendships that last a lifetime. Interns gain
exposure to and understanding of the issues facing isolated elderly
people living in San Francisco. Internships can also provide exposure
to the many different aspects of running a busy non-profit
organization, and to the wide array of elder and volunteer service
agencies in San Francisco. Interns work on a volunteer basis under the
guidance of a staff member.
Both full and part-time internships with flexible hours are possible.

"My internship was a really good experience and provided me an insider's
view the social services system of San Francisco."

"It was very rewarding to know that just thirty minutes of my time could
help put a smile on an elder's face."
