Urban REAP Internship

In partnership with Mission Waco and Urban REAP (Renewable Energy and Agricultural Project), students may intern for 20-40 hours a week during June and July in one or more of Urban REAP's four initiatives: composting, aquaponics, the garden center, and education. 

Urban REAP addresses the impact of environmental degradation at the community level. Air pollution, contaminated water, and food access disproportionately affect limited-income neighbors, meaning our communities cannot separate how we treat the environment from how we treat our sisters and brothers beside us and around the world. Urban REAP exists to create a more sustainable future by providing our community with ways to help care for our creation as well as our neighbors.  Summer interns will work to implement Urban REAP programming and projects while growing their understanding of sustainability issues and social innovation. Interns will develop leadership skills, greater capacity for community service, and research questions emerging from their sustainability work.
