Fundraising Intern

with purpose and hope.

Bank and Gaza), Lebanon and Jordan. We mobilize resources for immediate emergency relief and for
sustainable, long-term health, education, and economic development. Our staff serve in their
communities, navigating the politics that constrict progress to get help where it’s needed most.
That’s how Anera received more than $171 million in support of programs in 2023 alone, and it’s how we
