Giving hands-on job experience to community college students.

Paid internships for priority students.

Adding more unique experiences, ideas, and perspectives to the marketing and advertising industry by expanding storytelling and representation in its workforce. 

The Big Idea

Originally created in partnership with the Los Rios Community College District, we offer paid internships that provide on-the-job experience and career preparation support for students from non-traditional pathways into the marketing industry. This program is designed to ensure work experiences are both educational and impactful.

Representing the Community

Black, Hispanic, and Asian-Pacific Islander (API) Americans accounted for 11%, 18%, and 23%, respectively, of the total Sacramento County population.

Diversifying Ideas and Impact

In US marketing roles, 25% identified as an ethnicity other than white. Of this group, 9% identified as API, 8% as Hispanic/Latino, 6% as African-American/ Black, and 2% as “other.”

How It Works

3fold offers a part-time internship for students who are currently enrolled in college programs that have not traditionally led to marketing career pathways. Under the guidance of our 3fold mentors, interns work on client campaigns and projects as an integral member of the team and are encouraged to add their ideas and perspectives to boost representation and effectiveness.

Mentorship and Guidance

Interns will be led by department directors who will act as their mentorship guides, providing them with one-on-one check-ins, advice, and support in the areas of design, web, media, or account management. Additionally, they help identify skill-building opportunities and connect participants with the resources they need to build successful careers.

Expanding Leadership

In US leadership positions, only 12% of ANA member Chief Marketing Officers identified as an ethnicity other than white. Of this group, 5% as API, 4% as Hispanic/Latino, and 3% identified as African-American/Black.
