You've read about our internship and volunteer opportunities in Ecuador, you've heard what past interns have to say about the program, now it's time to feel the continued appreciation we have for our volunteers and interns after they leave the program. Fundación Runa's support continues far past your time with us in the Amazon. Here are a few examples of how we have been able to take volunteer experiences to the next level:
- Runa has hired 4 previous volunteers. One as a full time Sales Rep in the United States and three more in Ecuador as our Regional Coordinator, Volunteer Coordinator and Architect for a new factory.
- When Runa needs an extra hand at events we turn to our volunteers and interns. We have funded their trips to Las Vegas to help us share guayusa at the World Tea Expo.
- With our support, a previous volunteer received a Fulbright Grant to come back and work with Runa in Ecuador.
- We helped a volunteer land a competitive internship with a bustling tech start up in San Francisco.
- We have written multiple recommendation letters for MBA programs and are happy to write many more.
