We, at Internship Bank have always strived to find solutions to problems. In fact we pride ourselves on our problem solving skills! For example, we took a step towards helping students of lesser known colleges find internship opportunities and built an exclusive platform to achieve this goal. We then took steps to provide young female students with senior female mentors and role-models and ensured our interns were placed in safe working environments in teams headed by women!

This month, your Internship Bank has added another feather to its cap!

In the previous year, many of you let us know how unhappy and demotivating “unpaid” internships were becoming. We understood you and realised how even a small token stipend could go a long way in motivating all of you.

Consistent with our past practice, this time too we came up with a solution! May be a small solution but we hope this small step will be a big leap in the right direction.

In July 2021, we at Internship Bank started the Internship Bank Scholarship Program. In just 3 months we identified and disbursed scholarships of varying amounts ranging between 3,000 INR to 5,000 INR each, to 6 candidates! We plan to disburse scholarships to 34 more students (40 students in total) who sign-up and complete unpaid internships secured via Internship Bank and receive a good feedback from their internship provider!
