Internship Testimonial

"When seeking an internship, I was looking for an opportunity that would allow me to do more than just meet the college credit requirements. The Miracle League of the South Hills  gave me the chance to become part of a community and for that, I am grateful. This internship was fun, educational and versatile. I really value the fact that I was able to share my ideas, put them into motion and then see the final results. As an intern for The Miracle League of South Hills, you have the ability to wear many hats as you get to know the coaches, athletes, junior board and more. The opportunities are endless at Miracle League of the South Hills. If you are looking to put the extraordinary in an ordinary internship, then this is the place for you!"
