    Serving the underserved

    Carter Bradshaw '20 is a double major in anthropology and French and is interested in working in a non-profit service organization after graduation. She’s gained plenty of experience in the summer of 2018 through an internship at Champlain Community Services (CCS), a local organization that provides services to intellectually disabled adults. She took advantage of a College of Arts and Sciences scholarship which pays for her living expenses during the summer. “I’m extremely grateful to UVM for that,” she said. “Many internships like this are unpaid so the funding helps me with living expenses while I’m working.” Bradshaw worked on several communication and development projects, including conducting interviews and writing stories for the CCS annual report and running the organization’s main fundraiser. “I think my anthropology studies really relate to what I'm doing . . .  I 'm making connections with people by learning about their different lifestyles as well as advocating for and working with a population of people with disabilities who are often excluded from the community."
