Fundación ASCIENDE is a nonprofit organization that seeks to do good in a plethora of different
ways… everything from conducting research in sports psychology to organizing Master’s Degree
programs to providing sport for youth and community development and peace programs. I had the
pleasure of completing my internship with Fundación ASCIENDE during my last semester of
university.
I not only began to establish international contacts and partnerships for them, but I also researched
and documented various domestic and international funding opportunities and resources; potential
partnership organizations; social media marketing techniques and resources; and nonprofit
verification opportunities.
It was one of those projects that the more I worked the more the project and ideas continued to
grow… there was never a specific ending to my project, only continued growth and potential for my
work and the foundation.
My experience working with Fundación ASCIENDE and directly with its founder, Alicia Romero, was
nothing short of spectacular. Not only did I get to develop my personal research, professionalism,
Spanish language, and writing skills, but I also learned a great deal about fundraising, marketing,
social media, nonprofit verification opportunities, and much more that I will be able to take with me
and apply towards future career opportunities.
Furthermore, I had the opportunity to learn about and contribute to the “behind the scenes” work of
the organization, which I hope will continue to help move the organization forward into growth, new
projects, and new locations.
My time spent working with Fundación ASCIENDE is something I will continue to cherish and learn
from for many years to come, and although I may no longer be in Santiago de Chile, I hope to
continue to contribute to and assist the organization and any way that I can.
