Osinachi (oh-SIN-ah-chee), which means “Gift of God,” is a nonprofit organization working to improve literacy, increase reading, and help create lifelong readers—beginning with children.

Real Work. Real Training. Real Experience. Greater Employability.

Learn how a nonprofit turns mission into funded programs, donated resources, partnerships, measurable outcomes, and community impact.

This is an unpaid developmental apprenticeship, not a clerical-assistant position. You will work on real projects while receiving hands-on, on-the-job training.

What You May Work On

• Research grants, foundations, corporate giving programs, sponsorships, and other funding opportunities aligned with the mission.
• Assist with crowdfunding support for Apple a Day and other approved initiatives.
• Maintain grant calendars, deadlines, eligibility notes, prospect lists, and submission records.
• Assist with case-for-support language, proposal materials, sponsorship concepts, and measurable-outcome tracking.

As your skills grow, your responsibility will grow.

What You Can Learn

Grant Research • Nonprofit Development • Fundraising Operations • Sponsorships

Crowdfunding • Donor Stewardship • Impact Measurement • Proposal Management

You will also receive practical exposure to AI-assisted business tools for research, organization, quality control, project management, and productivity, while learning when human judgment and review are essential.

Our goal is that after six successful months, you are more employable than when you arrived and can point to meaningful professional accomplishments on your résumé.

Who Should Apply

A strong fit may be a nonprofit-management, business, public-administration, communications, social-impact, or grant-writing student—or someone who wants experience connecting mission, funding, and measurable results.

Applicants should be dependable, teachable, detail-oriented, comfortable with technology, and willing to receive constructive feedback. You are not expected to know everything already—the purpose is to learn through meaningful work.

You should be organized, dependable, teachable, comfortable with technology, able to work independently, and willing to accept constructive feedback.

Supervision & Development

Interns receive orientation, defined assignments, regular supervision, feedback, and periodic check-ins. As skills grow, responsibility can grow. Academic-credit requirements can be coordinated with eligible schools when available.
