My Dream Internship<\/strong> As a vegetarian and distance runner pursuing a career in writing, I found my dream internship with The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG). My name is Savannah Lawrence, and I\u2019m a college senior at Stevenson University and intern with VRG. Writing for the Vegetarian Journal allowed me to expand my resume, develop credible writing samples, and, most importantly, apply my love for vegetarianism, health, and fitness into my writing. My favorite article to write was a feature with ultrarunner Scott Jurek, who I would\u2019ve never spoken to had it not been for VRG wanting me to incorporate my love for running into my writing for them (the interview will run in Vegetarian Journal in 2017). <\/p>\n The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG) is a non-profit organization dedicated to educating the public on vegetarianism and veganism and the interrelated issues of health, nutrition, ecology, ethics, and world hunger. Through community outreach and its publications, VRG helps young students transition to meatless diets in healthy, affordable ways and connect to a community of like-minded individuals. At VRG I feel at home because I know that I won\u2019t be mocked for my lifestyle choices and will be encouraged to incorporate my lifestyle into my written work. I\u2019ve even had the chance to educate my classmates and friends on vegetarianism, animal welfare, and the environment because of my internship \u2013 it\u2019s been a learning experience that extended beyond just myself. Check out what other interns had to say about their experiences here<\/a>. <\/p>\n Internships like this one are possible with donations from people like you. Thank you for your support. My internship wouldn\u2019t be possible without your help!
