As the Communications Intern for Worthwhile this summer, I have learned about everything from Information Architecture and SEO to press releases and customer service. As a part of my job, I recently had the opportunity to interview Emily Kosa and Meg Reid at DNA Creative Communications right here in Greenville to learn more about communications. As usual, I can’t believe the coolness of my internship.

What do 2 small children, 5 women, 5 men, 20+ trash bags, and a massive pile of debris have in common? You guessed it – HOG, err, Hands on Greenville that is.

I have a couple of friends and organizations that I do a little work for to help them or their cause out. The reason I do it is not because I love extra work, or have some need to fill my free relax-time with nose-down computer tasks, it’s because they’re my friends and I believe in their cause. One such group is the Palmetto Peloton Project (www.p3ride.org). We do a lot of work for them here at Worthwhile, but in addition to that I maintain their yearly blog for their “Challenge to Conquer Cancer” relay ride from Greenville to Austin, TX (www.ridetoaustin.com). I also try to help them stay up to par with social media (although I dropped the twitter-ball this year. We’ll get better about it!) and generally I toot the P3 horn whenever the topic of cancer comes up. This group will have donated close to three quarters of a million dollars to local cancer research and the LiveStrong Foundation when this year’s events come to a close. Not only is this completely phenomenal, my wife has been a part of this group for the past three years and is a cancer survivor. I enjoy helping them out.
