The global pandemic revealed and accelerated systemic opportunity gaps while underscoring the need for a new generation of problem solvers.

We have the power to help.

College for Social Innovation offers life-changing internships for a full semester of academic credit. Our program lights a fire for students and it delivers results—including a big jump in career outcomes, and not just in any career. Our mission is to educate and inspire the next generation of problem solvers— students committed to careers addressing the urgent issues we face in our society —from public health and racial justice to food security, education, and climate change. Support our work by donating today!

Your contribution can make this program possible for all students.

Many studies show that high-impact learning programs like ours open doors of opportunity. However, the same studies show that lower-income students, first-generation students, and students of color access these programs at much lower rates. We are committing to changing that equation and have already seen success (Check out our results here)!

With your help, we can do even more.

In addition to doubling down on student access, we are committed to helping the 164 amazing social impact organizations that have hosted one or more of our Fellows. For many of these organizations, CFSI has become a mission-enhancing capacity builder and talent pipeline.

Please consider contributing to make Semester in the City more accessible for low-income students and other under-represented students to participate and become lifelong problem solvers for good.
