About Bhopal Cares Forum (BCF)

Bhopal Cares Forum (BCF) is a youth-led non-profit organization working towards environmental conservation, community engagement, and sustainable development. Our work includes lake and public space clean-up drives, plantation initiatives, awareness campaigns, community projects, and evidence-based environmental advocacy.

Recently, BCF received 12AB Registration and 80G Approval, allowing eligible donors to claim tax benefits on their contributions.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for someone who enjoys networking, building meaningful relationships, and helping impactful social initiatives secure the resources they need.

This internship is ideal for students who are interested in NGOs, social impact, business development, marketing, public relations, sales, or stakeholder management. You'll gain practical, hands-on experience while contributing to projects that make a real difference.

Compensation

This is a performance-based internship.

At present, BCF is a growing non-profit organization and does not have the financial capacity to offer a fixed monthly stipend.

Instead, interns will receive an incentive of 10% on donations and sponsorships that are directly generated through their own efforts, subject to BCF's fundraising guidelines.

The complete incentive structure and terms will be discussed with shortlisted candidates before onboarding.

This approach allows us to reward meaningful contributions while ensuring that the maximum possible resources continue to support the causes we work for.
