The Watertown Community Foundation announces two 2021 grant programs to support high school students in Watertown.
“In 2015, when the Watertown Community Foundation and the Watertown High School Guidance Department launched this unique summer internship program for our town’s high school-age students, we had no idea how quickly it would grow,” Lora Sabin, WCF board member and program co-creator, said. “From just five students in 2015, the high school internship program will grow to a record 18 student internships available this year.”
WCF’s Summer Internship Program
Watertown students find an internship that can provide them with meaningful work experience. They commit to working 120 hours over the course of the summer and are paid a $1,000 stipend at the end of the work experience.
