  My Dream Internship

By Savannah Lawrence

As a vegetarian and distance runner pursuing a career in writing, I
found my dream internship with The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG). My
name is Savannah Lawrence, and I'm a college senior at Stevenson
University and intern with VRG. Writing for the /Vegetarian Journal/
allowed me to expand my resume, develop credible writing samples, and,
most importantly, apply my love for vegetarianism, health, and fitness
into my writing. My favorite article to write was a feature with
ultrarunner Scott Jurek, who I would've never spoken to had it not been
for VRG wanting me to incorporate my love for running into my writing
for them (the interview will run in Vegetarian Journal in 2017).

The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG) is a non-profit organization
dedicated to educating the public on vegetarianism and veganism and the
interrelated issues of health, nutrition, ecology, ethics, and world
hunger. Through community outreach and its publications, VRG helps young
students transition to meatless diets in healthy, affordable ways and
connect to a community of like-minded individuals. At VRG I feel at home
because I know that I won't be mocked for my lifestyle choices and will
be encouraged to incorporate my lifestyle into my written work. I've
even had the chance to educate my classmates and friends on
vegetarianism, animal welfare, and the environment because of my
internship — it's been a learning experience that extended beyond just
myself.

Subscribe now to the /Vegetarian Journal/ and allow future interns like
me the opportunity to use their skills in meaningful ways. For just $35,
you'll receive a two-year subscription to the Vegetarian Journal plus a
copy of /Simply Vegan: Quick Vegetarian Meals/. Look for my upcoming
articles in 2017 issues of the /Vegetarian Journal/. I can't wait for
you to read them!

you. Thank you for your support. My internship wouldn't be possible
without your help! Donate to The Vegetarian Resource Group here:
