CRNF Launches Students for Students Initiative



CRNF is launching the first ever, “Students for Students” Initiative (SFSI). The purpose of SFSI is to connect students and young professionals in the global Caribbean community to create a network of support by enhancing cultural awareness, providing a sense of community, and offering career development resources to foster a commitment to Caribbean development and investment. This initiative will serve as a hub for students and young professionals seeking educational and professional development information by leveraging the network of Caribbean Returning Nationals® Foundation members and partners. SFSI members will have the opportunity to gain experience through internships, virtual assistant jobs, and performing interviews.

Here are a few opportunities for students and young professionals.

(1) Virtual Assistants (VAs): Students will work or intern with companies and individuals that are members of the CRNF network remotely. Special considerations are made for new graduates and existing studentss

(2) My Story Interviews: Students will interview individuals in the diaspora and beyond who are making a positive difference in the global community. This is a great opportunity for students to showcase their interviewing, writing and editing skills internationally.

(3) Internships: Students interested in developing their skills and talents by interning with individuals and companies.

Students MUST BE MEMBERS OF CRNF. The annual membership fee is $35.00 USD. In the interest of inclusiveness, the annual membership fee may be waived or deferred. Students must provide proof of enrollment. To join send an email to: students@caribbeanreturningnationals.org
