My favorite experience while completing my internship was seeing the effect donations have on the patrons of Wharton Center. For example, we have tons of schools come to see educational performances at Wharton Center as a result of donations to Wharton Center’s Seats4Kids fund. It’s always uplifting to see how excited the kids are to come to Wharton Center.

Throughout my internship I learned to be a good person, whether it’s as simple as showing up to work on time, being kind to co-workers, or being on-task. While this sounds simple, it’s not the easiest to achieve. But once you master it, opportunities await you.
