Promising Pages is so lucky to have a rockin' group of Interns on board with us for summer! This talented group of students will be in charge of so many important aspects of the day to day operations, including Social Media, organizing the Warehouse, putting on Magic Book Parties, running our Crisis Assistance program, and helping coordinate the great group of high school interns we will have helping us this summer. They each bring a unique skill set, creativity, and energy to our team and they are sure to leave their mark and help us grow as an organization! Check out our newest team members and look out for them at our events this summer!
