FLEX-TIME INTERNSHIP/JOB – May-June, 2024

School Sustainability Survey

Help Schools Save Money & Cut Waste in Food Service

Internship: School Sustainability Survey

Description: Survey New Hampshire public school managers about food service resources and their interest in replacing disposable plastic with reusable service ware, e.g., utensils, dishes, and trays.

Location: Work from home.

Time frame: May-June 7, 2024

Schedule: Flex-time for email work and week-days for phone calls to school staff.

Pay: $20/hr. for a total of 35 hours ($700), paid based on work logs and check-ins with Mentor.

Employer: Non-profit organization, the New Hampshire Network for Environment, Energy and Climate New Hampshire Network and its sub-group, Plastic Working Group Ten Towns Toolkit (10towns.org). The internship Mentor will be Cynthia Walter, Ph.D., a resource person for PWG and a retired professor with 35 years of experience in supervising internships.

Preferred candidates: College students/recent graduates with paid or volunteer work experience. A wide range of academic majors are relevant, including Business, Social Science, Environmental Studies and Communications

Application: By May 22, email a resume highlighting relevant work experience. Send to Mentor, Dr. Cynthia Walter, at plan2cutplastic@gmail.com

Background: The project is the second phase of work to reduce plastic overuse and waste, following research by a UNH Sustainability Fellow in 2023 mentored by Dr. Walter. They determined a school can save $1,000-10,000 per year with no additional staff when the school switches from disposable plastic to reusable service ware. The intern will begin with our contact information for over 100 NH schools and expand as needed. We have electronic information packets on reusable service ware benefits including sources to help fund costs of starting materials and equipment. This survey requires an interest in talking with others and organizing information. The intern will gain skills in interviewing and a deeper understanding of real-world challenges and opportunities in a core part of the public sector, our schools.
