DESCRIPTION

A Public Relations Intern with A Room of Her Own Foundation (AROHO) has the opportunity to work directly with CEOs of two prestigious nonprofits. Working in the office of the Red Hen Press, a national presence in independent publishing based in Pasadena, and reporting to the Founder/ President of AROHO, the preeminent nonprofit working on behalf of creative women, you will have the opportunity to acquire skills in the growing non-profit arts sector and the potential of a salaried position.

We are currently accepting applications for the internship with a flexible start date. Our internship positions generally last about 6 months (this is flexible). We ask that interns put in at least 15 hours/week and come into the office at least 1 or 2 days a week. The internship is unpaid, but a weekly gas stipend may be available.

Basic Public Relations responsibilities include research and networking, proofreading press releases, marketing, promoting AROHO award recipients, and event planning with a focus on the Los Angeles area. Some basic development work (writing LOIs and proposals to potential funders) may also be involved.

A personal laptop is necessary for this internship.

HOW TO APPLY

To apply, please send a cover letter and resume to developmentaroho@gmail.com. Please also be ready to provide a letter of reference upon request. 

As an added note, Red Hen Press and AROHO are nonprofits that support work by people of all genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations and lifestyles. If you are uncomfortable with this, please do not apply.
