Have you ever wondered how change happens? Ever wonder if you could be a part of something that will improve the lives of billions around the world? It all starts here.
Jubilee USA Network, an alliance of 75 human rights, environmental, labor, faith, and community groups, works for the definitive cancellation of crushing debts to fight poverty and injustice in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
Jubilee internships are for qualified individuals with an expressed interest in working on debt cancellation and other issues of global justice. The internships provides an exciting opportunity for individuals looking to gain experience in a dynamic nonprofit.
Jubilee USA internships are unpaid, though a transportation stipend can be arranged. Arrangements can also be made to enable the intern to receive academic credit for the experience.

Interns must be able to work a minimum of 20 hours a week and interns who can work as close to full time as possible will be given higher priority.
