Thank You To Our New Donor!

We would like to extend a warm welcome and sincere thank you to our newest foundation partner, The Annenberg Foundation, who provided us with a $10,000 grant to support the continued growth of our internship programs. The Annenberg Foundation invests in visionary leaders of nonprofit organizations that provide impactful programs and services through collaborative models. The Foundation supports initiatives based in the arts, community, education, global issues and development of nonprofit organizations.

Employer Spotlight - International Finance Corporation

This month we would like to thank, and welcome, our first-time employer partner, International Finance Corporation (IFC). IFC is a leading global development institution advancing economic growth, creating opportunities, and improving lives on an international scale.


Our partnership with IFC began in 2023 when our team delivered neurodiversity training to the IFC staff. Excited to continue making their workplace accessible, IFC then teamed up with us to host a BroadFutures intern for the first time this winter. Thank you IFC team, we are so grateful for this partnership!

Intern Spotlight - James Colwell

This month we’re shining the spotlight on Winter ‘24 participant, James Colwell! James lives in Bethesda, MD and is a recent graduate of Walter Johnson High School. This winter James is excited to be interning at IHG Hotels & Resorts.


When asked to reflect on his time at BroadFutures and IHG thus far, James shared he’s “most excited about building connections with [his] employer for future career opportunities […] and gaining work experience.” James’ thoughtful ideas and positive demeanor have brought so much to our Winter cohort. Keep up the good work James!

Young neurodivergent people have limitless potential.
