This company provided key experience in microfinance, an area I was very interested in. I did do some administrative work, as does everyone who works there, but I also learned a lot about the specific programs HOPE has and felt like my contribution to the organization was real and important. I would recommend this internship to anyone.

Learning more in depth about microfinance pushed me in my thinking about global issues and how I am to be a part of a global network of support and encouragement to the poorest of the poor. The leadership of HOPE is passionate about their work in providing opportunities for people all over the world to use their talents and abilities to support themselves and their families while restoring dignity and respect in their life and in their communities. My summer there was a life changing ...
