We invest in people.
Newwave Foundation believes in a mutually beneficial volunteer platform that matches volunteers to work that is meaningful to both parties. We value the unique backgrounds that people bring to our organization and create opportunities that maximize their skill sets.
From marketing, grant writing, and fundraising, to writing as a guest blogger, our volunteers apply existing talents, develop new skills, and share their stories in ways that make a difference. We are always looking for people who want to grow with a nonprofit dedicated to promoting educational equity.

We invest in leaders.
At the core of NWF’s work to promote the long-term wealth and legacies of Black and Brown communities is a board of directors that works together to reflect on the past, take action in the present, and develop a strategic course for the future.
We strive to recruit members who are passionate and optimistic about the life-changing power of financial literacy. We seek action-oriented people with high standards who are willing to roll up their sleeves and go above and beyond to get the work done. Our work is framed by an empathetic and compassionate mindset, and we look for others who are committed to prioritizing the well-being of all. We value a collaborative spirit and seek members who will thrive on the synergy of a team while also building lasting external partnerships.

We invest in futures.
NWF supports scholars on their path to gaining practical work experience aligned to both their interests and career goals. Through paid internship opportunities (through work study programs) and unpaid internships, young people develop skills related to careers in marketing, communications, finance, fundraising and nonprofit management just to name a few.
We work to capitalize on the unique strengths and interests of our interns while also coaching them to navigate their first steps in the workplace. Check out what our interns have to say about how NWF has helped launch the next phase of their dreams.
