HOPE USA is delighted to express our sincerest thanks to our wonderful interns from the US, Gratia O’Rafferty and Brandon Francke, who spent 8 weeks working with HOPE, as part of their Summer internship program in Dublin, Ireland. Gratia and Brandon worked on researching USA based Trusts and Foundations and have provided great added value working remotely with our HOPE USA team. Thank you, Gratia and Brandon, for helping HOPE USA to continue to fulfil our mission to serve the most underprivileged and most vulnerable children and communities in Kolkata.
"The Hope Foundation ( HOPE ), is an amazing organization that has given me the opportunity to not only learn and develop skills needed for my future career but has also allowed me to aid HOPE's effort of creating a safer world for children and support those in Kolkata."

“I really enjoyed my internship with HOPE this summer and am grateful to have had the opportunity to see all of the important work they do. I primarily helped with researching grants and funding opportunities for HOPE and got valuable experience in the NGO sector that I am excited to take into my work in the future. All of the HOPE employees I met are incredibly kind, helpful, and passionate about the work that they are doing. Most importantly, my internship helped me understand how impactful HOPE projects are.”
