Internship Program
Graphic Design Intern
"My experience interning with Fearless Movement aided in recently receiving a student position at Rowan College of South Jersey, aiding their marketing department with design work. The internship has helped me further understand the process of time-management, adaptability, problem-solving, interpersonal skills, and prioritizing. I learned designing for this organization is mainly on how branding works with real-time experience, how to transition between print and video design, and how virtual-type work functions are interacting
with people. I enjoyed storytelling of active change through
Fearless Movement."

I now have more of an arsenal when it comes to editing and creating content with a higher level of comfort in the workplace. Along with knowledge and comfort, I am more confident to speak with the public through Fearless Movement's community about serious issues and growing my podcast."
Internship Program
Development and Fundraising Intern
"By learning the development of a non-profit organization, my communication, fundraising and innovation skills grew!
This internship gave me a purpose and it was the best feeling to be able to look back at my work in sharing the stories of those impacted and the impact of our donors gift.”
Internship Program
Graphic Design Intern
”Interning for Fearless Movement as a graphic design intern has been an amazing experience. It has reassured me in my direction of work and really solidified what I want to be or continue to be. Working under Ashley has impacted and improved my time management as well as challenged me to be more concise with
client needs.
Overall I am very thankful for this beautiful work experience and hope that helped out Fearless Movement the best I possibly could."
Internship Program
Business Administration Intern
”When I first joined Ashley asked me what were the areas I wanted to improve in and what skills did I want to acquire from this internship. This is where I was shocked at how much she listened and assigned me tasks and work that pushed me in those areas and took me out of my comfort zone to improve.
Not only was I able to improve myself but I also felt like I was helping people in a way because of the focus the organization has on supporting the community and its people. I am so appreciative of the opportunity I had to gain experience and grow over this semester as an intern at Fearless Movement."
