Building on the well-established relationships between Canada and other countries, the Canadian Fund for International Understanding through Culture (Can for Culture) is dedicated to creating opportunities for cultural collaboration.
With various events taking place all around the world, Can For Culture was in need of a financially savvy student to help the board treasurer compile annual financial statements for the board’s review.
The project went very well for both parties involved, from Can For Culture:
“SpringTern is an extremely powerful tool for any organization looking for some extra help. We were very impressed with the calibre of the applications we received. SpringTern gives direct access to a pool of talented, hard-working and bright individuals. The work we received back was better than expected! Our student redesigned our excel files so that we would have a more automated and formal driven template.”
From the student:
“SpringTern helped me connect with a great volunteer opportunity that enhanced my professional network, and allowed me to develop career-relevant skills. As most of its advertised opportunities are short-term commitments that can be completed remotely, I was able to gain valuable industry experience, while still staying on top of my school work and other extra-curricular commitments.”
