This is a fantastic opportunity to get a </span><span>holistic knowledge about how campaigns work, make long-lasting networks </span><span>and professional connections, and get more involved in civic and electoral </span><span>processes. Below you will find a message from her Field Director.</span><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Best!</span></div><div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>From Madeleine Leader</span><br><span>Field Director</span><br><span>Kathleen Matthews for Congress</span><br><br><span>Do you want to be part of the grassroots effort to change America, but</span><br><span>you're not sure how to get involved? Come intern for the Kathleen Matthews</span><br><span>Campaign! We are seeking passionate and energetic applicants who want to</span><br><span>learn how campaigns work, how to run them, and help elect the next</span><br><span>Representative of Maryland's 8th Congressional District.</span><br><br><span>There is only a small time requirement to be considered an intern with our</span><br><span>campaign, and your schedule is set by you. Being part of the campaign team</span><br><span>is like gaining another family, and our struggles and triumphs are shared</span><br><span>collectively. Come Election Day, you'll walk out with a ton of new</span><br><span>friends, professional networks, and a full understanding of how to run</span><br><span>your own local grassroots field program.</span><br><br><span>In addition, we are offering a fellowship program for those who are</span><br><span>looking to take their involvement in the campaign to the next level. As</span><br><span>such, there is a greater time commitment required than interns, but</span><br><span>fellows will be privy to our Field Organizer Training Program. The goal of</span><br><span>this once a week seminar is for fellows to leave the Matthews campaign</span><br><span>ready to work on, and eventually run, their own campaigns in the future.</span><br><br><span>The Matthews Campaign internship and fellowship programs are designed to</span><br><span>be an enriching educational experience where participants will engage in</span><br><span>daily field activities, learn from and have access to seasoned campaign</span><br><span>staff, and hear from a variety political guest speakers.</span><br><br><span>To apply to be an intern or fellow for the Kathleen Matthews Campaign,</span><br><span>apply online at </span><a href="http://go.kathleenmatthewsforcongress.com/internships" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://go.kathleenmatthewsforcongress.com/internships</a><span> and</span><br><span>send us your resume at </span><a href="mailto:resumes@kathleenmatthewsforcongress.com" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">resumes@kathleenmatthewsforcongress.com</a><span>. There is</span><br><span>no experience necessary to apply for this position, there is no age</span><br><span>requirement, and you do not have to live in the district.
