As students are starting to seek funded IAP opportunities, I’d appreciate you sharing the information below with students in your department. This program is open to undergraduates and grads in all departments.
Thank you!
Warm regards,

Apply for a funded PKG Fellowship for IAP 2021!
MIT PKG Center
Deadline: Tuesday, October 20th, at noon

The PKG Fellowships program<https://pkgcenter.mit.edu/programs/fellowships/pkg-fellowships/> supports MIT students working on capacity-building social impact and community engagement projects. Students work with community-focused organizations including non-profits and social enterprises. These can include a student's own social enterprise.

What can you do? Follow your passion and collaborate with a community-focused organization!
You can create your own project, continue work on an enterprise you already started, or consult with an existing organization.

We welcome a wide range of social impact projects and support work with communities in the US and abroad. For IAP 2021, all projects must be undertaken remotely. Find examples of past projects here.<https://pkgcenter.mit.edu/blog/>
