Seed Internships

HOMEGROWN TALENT.
A THRIVING WORKFORCE.

Seed Internships invests in the vibrant future of the Puget Sound by identifying exceptional diverse college students and recent grads, and matching them with top, local employers.


INVESTING IN TOMORROW, TOGETHER

When it comes to fostering vibrant, equitable communities, college completion is only one piece of the puzzle. Cultivating career success is an important part of leadership development, but without the professional connections that internships provide, graduates face a tougher journey back to their home communities. Knowing that the Puget Sound has no shortage of top companies seeking motivated talent, we understand it’s just a matter of connecting the dots.

Through Seed Internships, we’re building a sustainable pipeline of homegrown talent to enrich both their workplaces and their communities.
