About the Haas Impact Internship Award (HIIA)
The Haas Impact Internship Awards was founded in 2004 by Haas students interested in social sector careers. HIIA provides grants to first-year, full-time MBA students who accept summer internships in the social sector including nonprofit, public sector, and social enterprise internships. These grants allow students to put their Haas MBA to use for organizations that are doing important work in communities around the world but cannot offer to pay the “typical” MBA internship rate. Show your support today for the Impact Internship Awards and pave the way for our Haas MBAs this Summer of 2025!
Last year in 2024, the following organizations benefited from an MBA intern who received grants from this fund:
How much should I give?
Every donation to Haas is part of an important ecosystem, which consists of donors from $10 to $10M+. Your gift makes an impact because you're participating in the act of philanthropy. This year, we're aiming for 100% student participation in giving for HIIA, to show our classmates our support.
If you currently have a paid internship or a full-time job, gifting one day's worth of wages would be a significant contribution.
With your support, we'll be able to help many more game-changing recipients develop their careers. Thank you for making an impact!
It takes donations of all sizes to support our Haas community!
