We've saved your seat!
 

If you are a Keith County graduate and have been away from home at school, learning, or working,  we'd like to talk about a paid internship that builds your skills and enhances our community.
 

Whatever your interest is, we would like you to consider spending some time in your hometown the summer of 2026.  Read on to learn more, or email us with any questions or suggestions. 

Hometown Intern

What are you doing next summer?
 

Every summer, our community welcomes people to enjoy the beauty and recreation we offer. 

KCFF also welcomes its Hometown Intern. Open to Keith County gradutes who are home for the summer, the individual's work benefits both the intern and the community. Please share this opportunity with recent graduates you may know, and support the projects they create to enrich all of us. 

 

The Big Picture

Nebraska Community Foundation’s Hometown Internship program began in 2019 as a partnership between community-based affiliated funds and the statewide organization. Interns are high school graduates who live in their hometown for the summer and carry out community development efforts in collaboration with their community. The experience increases young Nebraskans’ connection to Greater Nebraska and their understanding of asset-based community development. Since 2019, 95 interns have participated in the program from all corners of the state including three from Keith County.

KCFF Hometown Interns

Miah Hoppens and Rachel Orth brought their curiosity back to Ogallala as part of the Hometown Intern program. Their work enriched the community and their perspective gave a voice to our Keith County rural youth.

As our 2024 Hometown Intern, Caleb made the most of his community's creativity. He shared his story and his excitment for the program in our newsletter. As with all of our interns, we are thrilled to see where the years take him -- and to share that Keith County will always welcome him home.
