🚀 Support Our Interns – Fundraiser Drive 2025
We had 78 students across the consortium who participated. We always strive to provide
compensation for students taking time over the summer to invest in themselves professionally.
The benefits are numerous – confidence, mentoring, networking, skill development, and even employment opportunities!
Help us raise $16,000 for K12 Foothill Consortium Interns.
Each qualified intern receives a $500 scholarship from the
The San Gabriel Valley Foundation for Economic Growth.
All contributions can be mailed to:
The San Gabriel Valley Foundation for Economic Growth
