As an intern for WAH, I was working closely with co-founder Sarah Cox, helping her in any way I could with the daily upkeep of the organization. Because WAH is still a relatively young organization (founded in 2011), it is still very much in the midst of developing and stabilizing, and it was exciting to be able to aid in this growth. While doing so, I was able to observe what it takes to run a small nonprofit while also learning a lot about the particular needs and challenges of the city of Detroit. The work I did for WAH was challenging, interesting at times and tedious at others, but my biggest take-aways from this experience came from simply being privy to the inside-circle of the world of nonprofits and coming to a deeper understanding of the ways in which my knowledge and skills can serve me in a professional or managerial space.
