For my internship this semester, I got a job as a Design Intern at Giving Forward. I first got the job opportunity from my professor saying that they were always looking for interns. I believe it is a public company, it primarily deals in advertising and marketing using banners, events, and donations to charities. The location is on the West side of Manhattan but due to COVID-19 and the ongoing pandemic, I am working remotely.
My responsibilities include working on banners using BannerSnack or other programs I am comfortable with such as Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. The clients are usually scouted from the founder and anyone else who has connections to celebrities. This is a nonprofit and we create content to generate traffic then donate 50% or more of the revenue to the nonprofits the consumer and the content creators select.
