Pratt Northam Foundation Accepting Applications for
2024 Summer Workership Program
For the 43rd consecutive
year, the Pratt Northam Foundation invites public sector and not-for-profit
organizations delivering services to people living between Boonville and
Carthage, to apply for Workership Grants.
The Workership Program will provide a maximum 350 hours of
summer employment for each position at minimum wage, for students who are
currently enrolled, or who have been accepted and will be enrolled in an
undergraduate or graduate academic program at an accredited college for the
2024 Fall semester.
The Pratt Northam
Foundation encourages all applicants to provide quality experiences for
their Workership Students.
The Foundation
values the sites that give students true hands-on
learning experiences.
Workership applicants are
reminded that Workership sites are selected based
upon the affirmative answers to the following questions:
1. Does the Workership
position provide programming directly to young people?
2. Does the Workership
position indirectly benefit young people?
3. Does the Workership
position help the student build skills and experience on a specific career
tract?
4. Does the Workership
position relate to the student’s field of study?
5. Will the student receive internship or
academic credit for the summer work?
An application
for Workership funding can be downloaded from the
Foundation’s Website: prattnortham.org. The deadline
for applications is January 12, 2024.
Private sector
businesses interested in hosting a summer intern are encouraged to contact Lisa
