Types of Help
Technology Interns help nonprofits complete small but important technology projects. Sample projects include providing help desk support, refurbishing computers, inventorying technology, setting up and configuring new computers, etc. We hold our interns to high levels of professionalism and performance.

The Technology Service Corps program shares the cost of the internship with your agency. The internship will cost $600 for nonprofit NPower NY members, $650 for nonprofit non-members and $1000 for for-profit organizations.
Nonprofits with budgets under 2 million dollars who are interested in this opportunity, but are unable to pay may apply for a scholarship. Scholarship applications can be requested.
Benefits
We prescreen candidates to fit your technology staffing needs. We coach interns to bring value to your organization. You have the option to lengthen the internship or hire your intern after the formal internship program is over without a placement fee.
