Job Description: PANO is the statewide organization serving and advancing the charitable nonprofit sector through leadership, advocacy, education and services in order to improve the quality of life in Pennsylvania.

Jennifer Ross is the direct supervisor of PANO interns. Responsibilities vary each semester based on the experience of the student and our current projects. We have hosted students from a wide variety of majors when they are interested in pursuing a career in the nonprofit sector. Currently, we are primarily seeking students from the following disciplines: communications/marketing, PR, administration, policy, or nonprofit management. Computer knowledge, as well as good writing and oral communication skills will factor into our selection.

Interns may help plan, promote and serve as a PANO representative at our seminars, conferences, and other events. They will aid Ms. Ross in the marketing of PANO memberships, respond to member requests, and assist with the production and distribution of our newsletter and other membership correspondence. Office duties include general clerical work such as phone responsibilities, data entry, handling incoming and outgoing correspondence, filing, and proofreading documents.

PANO interns interact with our Board Members through phone communication, drop-in visits, committee meetings, and possibly Board Meetings. They will learn how organizations are affected by its board structure.

PANO was selected to replicate a "Standards for Excellence" Program developed by our peer in Maryland which entails certification of charities, training programs pertaining to its code of ethics, and advanced technical assistance. Students will be exposed to the program´s evolution and benefit from an in-depth understanding of the sector. This program will engender vast hands-on projects for majors from a variety of fields.

Interns also are involved with the advocacy work that we do for the nonprofit sector. Our Executive Director Joe Geiger involves them in his work educating charities and legislators about charitable issues. They may also help with research and with the public policy section of our web site.

Interns will be exposed to a wide variety of association practices and have a varied work experience, so we are pleased to offer this enhanced opportunity.

PANO intern stations are equipped with Office Professional 2003 (PC): Outlook, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Publisher. We also have InDesign. All of our previous interns have benefited from the experience by developing stronger business computer skills during their tenure at PANO.
