Dorothy Andrews Kabis Memorial Internship


Each February ushers in the opportunity for a young lady from West Virginia to go to our nation's capitol and be in the hub of this great country.

The Dorothy Andrews Kabis Memorial Internship honors the former president of the N.F.R.W. (1963-67) who later was appointed U.S. treasurer by President Richard Nixon. The internship gives female undergraduates the opportunity to spend part of the summer working at national headquarters in Alexandria, Va. It includes a small monetary allowance, round-trip airfare to and from Washington, D.C., and housing in the D.C. metropolitan area.

Applicants must be at least a junior in college or a college student 21 years of age or older. They should have a general knowledge of government, a keen interest in politics, campaign experience, and sufficient clerical office skills that are adaptable to a busy office. Internship recipients may not reapply. WCRW would love to have a young lady from Wood County to apply for this wonderful opportunity.

Deadline: Applications due to WV Federation President, Gladys Lemley gblemley@suddenlink.net by February 20th.
