A Wider Circle is now in its 14th year of service to the most vulnerable children and adults in our nation’s capital region. The average family size of those we serve is 4 and the average annual income – from all sources – is $12,000. We serve the neediest of the needy. We have big goals for being a force in the movement to end poverty and have grown considerably in each of our 14 years.
The mission of A Wider Circle is simple: to end poverty for one individual and one family after another. We work in partnership with those we serve and with those seeking to help to ensure that every child and adult has the chance to succeed and the opportunity to live well.
A Wider Circle is a grassroots 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that brings on 10-15 interns each semester to work out of our Center for Community Service in Silver Spring. Interns play a significant role here; in addition to direct service and education internships, there are business, marketing, research, and strategic planning internships available.
We request that interns commit to working at least 10 hours per week (the average is 10 - 20, but some work more). Students interested in our internships may contact us at intern@awidercircle.org.
If you have any questions about internship opportunities with us or about our work in general, please contact me any time at 301608.3504 or at mark@awidercircle.org .
