About Fair Chance

Fair Chance is an engine for social change. We strengthen the sustainability and performance of community-based nonprofits to achieve life-changing results for children and youth living in poverty. We select high-potential, youth-serving nonprofits in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty and provide our Fair Chance “partners” with comprehensive expertise and management assistance – at no charge. We also connect them to a network of their peers – our alumni partners – to collaborate and share resources. Our capacity building engagements result in stronger, more efficient organizations that are better positioned to provide lasting benefits for the children they serve.

“Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They understood it was my first professional experience and took the time to explain jargon and go through processes I was unfamiliar with.”

Outreach Specialist

“This is a great internship - the staff is encouraging and supportive and you will learn a lot! It was a work-study position and there is a possibility of being asked to return year after year until you graduate.”
