OneHope is an international Christian nonprofit with the mission: “God’s Word, Every Child.” We develop Scripture-engagement programs that are used by global partners and churches to help share Jesus with children and youth. We work hand-in-hand with our global teams to contextualize the programs that we develop for the cultures they are intended to serve. Through collaborating with local churches, schools, and governments, we have reached over 2 billion children with a relevant Gospel message through print, storytelling, film, and digital programs since we began in 1987.

Cultivate, OneHope’s internship program, goes beyond a typical work internship. This program is designed for students and recent graduates to connect their valuable skills with mission-driven work, investing in their gifts and passions while serving the global Church. At OneHope, we make an effort to build in opportunities and experiences to support relational, professional, spiritual, and missional growth. With affordable, on-site housing located 15 minutes away from the beach, our internship program is a one-of-a-kind paid experience. To see some fun highlights, check out our Instagram @cultivateusa!
