Support Student Developers & Their College Dreams

I still remember what it felt like to be young—full of potential, but unsure how to take the next step. For so many students in our community, that’s the reality. They have the heart, the vision, and the talent... but not always the resources or access.

At the RRF Foundation, we see that potential every day. Our students are brilliant. They are leaders. They are builders. They just need the chance to prove it.

That’s why we created this summer internship program—not just as a job, but as a launchpad.

This year, 12 college students—future lawyers, economists, marketers, public health leaders, and mental health advocates—are working together to design and launch a real mobile app focused on youth mental health. It’s their vision, their creativity, and their voices leading the way.

But here’s the best part: while they learn to code, collaborate, and lead, they’re also earning money that goes directly toward college savings and educational expenses.

For many of them, this isn’t just extra income—it’s their first paycheck, their first time seeing their ideas come to life, and a critical first step toward higher education and long-term success.

What Your Donation Supports

We’re raising $30,000 to fully support 12 student interns through our “Sponsor a Future Leader” campaign.

Each student will receive:

$2,500 — A summer stipend that covers both their internship work and helps build their college savings

✅ 12 interns × $2,500 = $30,000

We've already raised $5,000 and are seeking support to cover the remaining $25,000

Your donation helps our students:

‍ Gain real-world experience building a mobile mental health app

Reduce financial stress and build college savings

Develop confidence, purpose, and leadership skills

Spend a summer learning, growing, and creating in community

We currently have interns studying Public Policy, Biology, Economics, Marketing, and Law. They are not just preparing for careers—they’re preparing to change the world.

This isn’t just about a paycheck.

It’s about believing in their brilliance, investing in education, and supporting innovation.
