| The Renaissance Mentoring program provides educational work experience for local college students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Aspiring to break the cycle of poverty in our city, our Renaissance Apprentices are typically the first in their families to attend college. By gaining valuable, real world work experience through mentoring internships at local businesses, each Renaissance Apprentice will emerge better equipped for a career in Buffalo upon graduation from college. The program is a collaborative effort between the Buffalo Renaissance Foundation and the Buffalo Urban League.
The majority of BRF Directors, via their companies and personal oversight, will annually mentor area college students of a disadvantaged background. Internship opportunities within BRF Director companies are currently under development. Please click on the companies below to review their internship opportunities and to apply.
Summer Internship Opportunities range from 80 – 160 hours per summer, from May 15 to Aug 15, for approximately 4-8 weeks at 20 hours/week. Each intern's schedule will be determined upon mutual agreement between the company and the intern. The intern will be paid a $10.00/hourly wage.
