“As the AP social media assistant, I have had the ability to virtually keep up with our summer peace fellows! I had the opportunity to invest my time in learning about AP’s partner organizations, and the fellowship program. Before this experience, I undoubtedly considered myself a social media guru, but this summer, this skill has grown to what I would call a ‘social media junkie.’ My everyday tasks consisted mostly of tracking our nine fellows through their journeys abroad and reporting them to the various social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr etc.). However, I also edited video, edited pictures, designed graphics, assisted with basic office tasks, and collaborated with my co-interns on GlobalGiving appeals, fundraising and event ideas, and partner organizations. I was even able to connect with AP’s supporters through the writing of blog digests to highlight the fellows blog postings.

AP truly lives up to the notion of “small but mighty.” AP’s commitment is truly inspiring. I have seen AP accomplish so much in just a few short months, and for that I am grateful to have been able to support such an influential organization.”
