FosterClub All-Star Internship Applications Due Feb 20

The FosterClub All-Star program was founded on the belief that youth who have successfully transitioned from foster care to responsible young adulthood are best suited to impact the transition of their younger peers.

Travel is included, as well as a weekly stipend and an end-of-session stipend of $1500 for each All-Star.
