Childhood Cancer Society (CCS) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting families battling pediatric cancer both financially and emotionally. Through fundraising events, wish-grant experiences, and strategic partnerships, CCS delivers meaningful, life-changing moments to children and families when they need it most, led by our official spokes-bear, Adventure Ted.
We are currently preparing for two major initiatives:
A high-level charity golf outing at Trump National Golf Club
An annual fundraising dinner event with the Mayor of Saddle River, NJ
Role Overview
We are assembling a select group of individuals to join the Adventure Ted Partnerships & Events Council, a performance-driven team responsible for driving outreach, partnerships, and community engagement tied to CCS’s flagship events.
Members of this council will work directly with the Founder and Chief Media Officer, contributing to real-time outreach efforts, sponsor development, and event execution.
This is not a traditional internship. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role centered on ownership, communication, and results.
Core Responsibilities
Outreach & Partnerships (Primary Focus)
Lead outreach via phone, email, and in-person communication to:
Local businesses and brands for sponsorships
Restaurants, venues, and service providers for auction items and collaborations
Build and maintain relationships through consistent follow-up
Represent CCS professionally across all external communications
Event Execution (Golf Outing + Fundraising Dinner)
Support outreach and coordination tied to CCS’s flagship events
Assist in securing sponsor participation and partner involvement
Help manage confirmations, communication, and relationship tracking
Coordination & Collaboration
Work alongside Communications and Creative teams to align outreach with event strategy
Contribute ideas for new partnerships and engagement opportunities
Participate in structured team execution sessions and planning discussions
What Makes This Different
Direct collaboration with the Founder and executive leadership
Exposure to high-level events, sponsors, and real-world partnerships
Real responsibility and ownership, not task-based assignments
A selective, performance-based environment focused on execution
Opportunity to earn elevated roles based on results
Growth & Advancement Opportunities
Top-performing interns may be invited to continue beyond the initial term as Associates within the organization.
Select individuals may also be considered for the Adventure Ted Brand Ambassador program, a paid, performance-based opportunity tied to revenue-generating initiatives and partnerships.
Advancement is based on execution, consistency, and demonstrated ability to contribute meaningfully to the organization’s growth.
Internship Eligibility
This role is eligible for internship credit in Communications, Social Media, Marketing, and Media-related programs, depending on your school’s requirements. We are happy to work with accepted candidates to complete any necessary documentation.
Ideal Candidate
Confident communicator, comfortable with outreach and relationship-building
Self-starter who takes initiative and follows through
Interested in partnerships, business development, social media, or event strategy
Motivated by ownership and real-world experience
Passionate about contributing to meaningful, mission-driven work
Structure & Expectations
Approximately 15 to 20 hours per week
Mandatory weekly meetings: Mondays and Thursdays, 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM EST
Includes:
C-suite alignment meeting (priorities and direction)
Execution session (live work and output)
All team members are expected to submit structured updates in advance via Discord
This is a performance-based role, continued participation is tied to consistency and execution
