Ay role as Community Partnerships intern at the Life Development Center (LDC) in Chicago, Illinois, my role involved reaching out to potential partners and working with our Community Empowerment team. I enjoyed that this internship was remote because I could collaborate with others that I may never have met otherwise. The LDC is a faith-based organization that works in many areas, such as Community Empowerment, Economic Empowerment, Youth Development, and others. I learned more about how to reach out to potential partners, manage the community partnership process, such as drafting criteria and a partnership agreement for organizations were interested in partnering with the LDC. I also used MailChimp to create and send the Quarter 2 and Quarter 3 newsletters – these highlighted the events and initiatives at the LDC. Finally, I worked with a partner to design a digital divide initiative google form that helps community members ask for technological devices they need or donate devices that they have.
