Poverty Resolutions: Doylestown Nonprofit Cultivates Penn State ...

Doylestown, PA (PRWEB) June 19, 2012

This summer, Poverty Resolutions, a nonprofit organization based in Doylestown, PA, will host two interns from the Penn State Schreyer Honors College, continuing their established connection with the Penn State community.

Gail Goochee, senior in Human Resources, and Danny Kannell, senior in Economics and Mathematics, augment a staff that already boasts three Penn State graduates.

Matt and Andrew Jones founded Poverty Resolutions in 2010. Matt earned his MBA from the Penn State Smeal College of Business in 2011, followed by Andrew in 2012.

Sean Griffin, a 2009 graduate in International Politics and Economics and a State College native, recently joined Poverty Resolutions after returning from the Peace Corps.

During the last year, 12 Penn State students completed internships in a variety of fields, including International Development, Marketing, and Graphic Design.

Poverty Resolutions has also developed relationships with Penn State faculty.

They have teamed up with Dr. Sam Richards (Sociology), Nancy McClure (Accounting), and Dr. Bee Roberts (Economics) to engage Penn State students inside the classroom.

Dr. Jay Stauffer, a professor in the College of Agricultural Sciences, recently provided expertise in the development of a tilapia farm in Haiti, a current project of the organization.
