OM was chosen as a Handshake Early Talent Award recipient because of our mission-driven approach to internships and our high level of manager investment and care. 2 out of 3 of our interns say they would consider working for their host team, organization, or business in the future—and 2 out of 3 of our managers say they would hire their intern for a similar job. To learn more, check out our intern stories, FAQs, and testimonials on our internship website and Handshake employer profile  Additional Information: All interns must be in full agreement OM USA’s Statement of Faith. Internships begin in mid-May and go through July, and program includes an orientation and debriefing with your internship cohort and OM and InterVarsity staff. This is an unpaid internship (like the vast majority of international internships, especially with nonprofits and small businesses in developing economies). Travel, program, and living costs must be covered by the intern, either personally or through fundraising, financial aid, or scholarships you find. We work hard to keep these costs to a minimum so that these internships are accessible to everyone, and you may fundraise to cover most of those costs. If you are invited into the cohort, you will need to provide a deposit (applied toward your total costs) to secure your spot. Internship credit could be available upon the approval of your university/college administration. May qualify for other degree or course requirements, such as practicum or observation hours; check with your advisor. Application deadline is February 20, 2026, but cohort may fill sooner.
