Writer & Editor
Hello! I'm Katherine Heil, a GVSU undergraduate (Writing major, Studio Art minor) hoping to go into writing or editing with a specific interest in grant writing for non-profits. Thank you for visiting my portfolio; you can find both academic and internship writing as well as my graphic design work via the header, as well as my resume and awards. A summary of my internship is below.
Recent Internship:
During the summer of 2023, I acted as a remote grant writing intern for the Yiddish Arts and Academics Association of North America (YAAANA) and Yiddishland, their physical location. My work involved preparing information about YAAANA and their developing projects for the approval of many sponsors, from small websites to the San Diego government, and researching the grant opportunities we had and determining what information would need to be given per each application. I also wrote thank-you letters and requests for donations, revised their GoFundMe page, and assisted in calling local shops and art appraisal services when needed. Some of my work done for YAAANA can be found in the "Writing" page.
