Mayyim Hayyim Seeks Student Interns

 

Join the most innovative and dynamic organization in the greater Boston area. Mayyim Hayyim Community Mikveh and Education Center seeks savvy, motivated, self-starter student interns for the fall semester and/or the 2011-2012 academic year.

 

Mayyim Hayyim houses two mikvaot (Jewish ritual baths), an education center and an art gallery. We act as a resource for learning, spiritual discovery, and creativity where women and men of all ages can celebrate milestones like weddings and b’nei mitzvah; where conversion to Judaism is accorded the honor and dignity; where survivors of trauma, illness, or loss find solace; and where women explore the ritual of monthly immersion on their own terms. Mayyim Hayyim is located in Newton, MA, convenient to the Woodland MBTA Green Line Stop.

 

Our internship program provides a unique opportunity to become an integral part of a small and industrious team of passionate professionals, where interns are given the opportunity for hands-on learning and professional development and training.

 

Projects for interns may include:

 

  1. Social Media: managing the Mayyim Hayyim blog, web updates, social networking platforms and multimedia
  2. National programming and consultation support
  3. Fundraising/Development
    • Working directly with Mayyim Hayyim’s Director of Development
    • Gift solicitation
    • Event marketing and communications
    • Volunteer recruitment and event logistics
    • Working closely with lay leaders, outside vendors and consultants

 

Interns will work a minimum of 15 hours per week. The dates of the internship are flexible.
