Communications Intern
Summer 2018
The Midwest Region Produce Cooperative is a member-driven organization focused on reducing produce distribution barriers and innovating, piloting, and incubating new opportunities for the distribution of produce by sharing and replicating best practices within the region.
I oversaw all communication with Midwest Region Produce Cooperative members and internal organization staff. Additionally, I independently developed and managed new content calendar software to execute communications campaigns and wrote copy for collateral used by the Volunteer Services team. I also produced a webpage, seen below, about the MRPC for the main Second Harvest Heartland website.
Newsletters
During my communications internship with the Midwest Region Produce Cooperative (MRPC), I oversaw all of the communications to co-op members—including the monthly newsletter. I conducted interviews, compiled research, wrote all copy, and edited the July and August 2018 editions of the newsletter.

Video Projects
I produced, directed, and edited these short, informational videos for co-op members with updates on incoming produce shipments and proper storage guidelines.

Webpage
I wrote the copy and style for this webpage about the Midwest Region Produce Cooperative for the main Second Harvest Heartland website.
