Internship Data Entry Inventory Jobs in Minnesota

Organization Description

Girls on the Run Minnesota is a non-profit 501(c)(3) community-based organization. Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. This spring, our 1,000+ volunteer coaches will mentor more than 3,500 young girls (3rd through 8th graders) with an 8-week, 16-lesson curriculum that is research based and combines training for a 5K with social and emotional life skill building. We integrate running with specific life skills training such as healthy decision-making, setting boundaries, empathy, contributing to the community, leadership and teamwork in schools and communities throughout Minnesota. Our fall 2026 internships provide an opportunity to make a difference and receive valuable experience with an outstanding youth empowerment program.

We have one internship opening on our Program team and one opening on our Development & Communications team. Our interns are expected to work an average of 10 hours per week throughout the semester, including serving as a GOTR Coach.

At Girls on the Run, we weave joy and celebration into all we do. We communicate early and often in collaboration, we adapt creatively, and we hold space for our differences and for dreaming big. At Girls on the Run, our core values guide our way and we stand firm in our long-standing commitment to building a world where every person can know and activate their limitless potential. We warmly welcome the participation of any child who identifies as girl, non-binary, or gender expansive in our programs. We are committed to leveraging our intellectual, financial, and human resources to advance strategies to be inclusive, equitable and accessible to all.
