My name is Toby Beckelman and I am responsible for Community Engagement at FoodCare Inc. We are the leading Community Nutrition Transformation Company, with a mission of transforming the dietary well-being of the nation, one community at a time.
We are a growing company and looking to recruit interns for this summer. Would it be possible to share our internship opportunity with your students who are interested in public health, nutrition or food policy?
Thanks,
Toby Beckelman
About FoodCare:
FoodCare is a Community Nutrition Transformation Company, and we’re focused on
transforming the dietary well-being of America one community at a time. America needs a
systems-based approach to delivering the most effective food interventions. One-off apps that
aren't integrated with the real world communities that people live in on a day-to-day basis do
not get at the heart of community nutrition transformation.
We provide “Nutrition-as-a-Service” apps and computing infrastructure for communities with a
white-label Community Nutrition Platform™, which is a next-generation suite of apps for all
things food related including advanced recipe discovery, meal planning, food logging, and local
food community resources (and more).
The comprehensive FoodCare Community Nutrition Platform takes a systems-level view to
meet the needs of community leaders, community members, healthcare professionals
counseling patients and families, and foodservice solutions for all of those nourishing their
community members. It is the integration of a wide-range of constituents that we believe will
drive the most transformative value.
We were founded in 2012 and have recently begun launching our platform. We work with a wide
variety of organizations, including major health associations, state and local public health
agencies, and specialist non-profit organizations also focused on food, wellness and healthcare
system transformation.
About Working With FoodCare:
We believe that working with us will present a unique experience. While we have several roles
available, each entails working on very strategic projects both internally and externally with
high-level professionals in public and private sectors. You will work directly with leading figures
at national, regional and/or local levels on a daily basis.
We expect this to be a very intensive work experience and not for the faint of heart. We are
looking for people that are truly dedicated to making a big impact, and have a strong work ethic.
Keep in mind that we are the “private” side of “public-private partnership”, and that we are a
technology company founded in Silicon Valley: we have serious goals and we’re moving forward
incredibly fast.
What We’re Looking For:
We are looking for energetic people that are also very smart, and hard working. We also need
you to be fairly personable, because you will be spending 25 – 90% of your time interacting
directly with high level leaders in public health at national, state and local levels (depending on
your assignment).
We need self-starters that are comfortable with doing something for the very first time, often
with relatively minimal direction.
Open Roles:
We will be hiring several interns to either work remotely from home (with some occasional
travel), or to work out of an office we’re preparing to open in New York City. We will support
any academic needs for you to get formal credit from your school.
Specializations will include:
SNAP/WIC Nutrition Intervention Strategist
● Develop personal relationships with leaders of SNAP/WIC programs on national basis
● Openly discuss challenges facing SNAP/WIC nutrition educators and recipients
● Identify strategies for using FoodCare technologies to solve key challenges
● Perform product management role, actively developing requirements and designing
solutions our product team can implement to better meet the needs of SNAP/WIC
recipients
● Liaise with leadership of major non-profit organizations, as well as public sector
organizations such as CDC, NIH, USDA, etc.
Community Nutrition Evaluation Specialist
● Collaborate with public health champions and conduct a formative evaluation of pilot
cities
● Design evaluation material including surveys and interview scripts
● Assist in analyzing data, interpreting results and providing recommendations that will
impact the direction of FoodCare
National Food Policy Council Manager
● Engage food policy councils and increase ecosystem of support
● Collaborate with local and regional leaders to understand and address food system
challenges
● Identify strategies for using FoodCare technologies to solve key challenges
Community Nutrition Informatics Lead
● Set strategic direction of FoodCare’s Community Nutrition Informatics practice
● Interview and collaborate with informatics leaders and public health coordinators on
nation wide basis to identify key challenges and solution requirements
● Develop relationship with major health institutes
● Support healthcare researchers with specialized study requirements
● Create and implement strategy for collection and use of health data
Health Communications Lead (Web, Mobile, Social)
● Develop national and local health promotion campaigns focused on food system
transformation
● Collaborate with regional partners to execute campaigns, identify best practices
● Develop and host webinars for state and local health communications leads on
nationwide basis
● Support development and execution of launch events and specific public relations
initiatives
Qualifications:
● Enthusiastic, motivated, passionate about the work we’re doing
● Ability to network and foster relationships within a community
● Self-starter, comfortable with developing strategy and collateral from scratch
● Currently enrolled or recently completed a graduate program in nutrition, public health or
related field (preferred concentrations: Nutrition/Food Policy, Community Health, Health
Communications, Biostatistics)
Details:
Duration: May-August*
Location: New York City or Remote
Compensation: Monthly Stipend

Volunteer Opportunity
Project Istwa is looking for motivated and enthusiastic people to volunteer as facilitators for the summer 2014
workshops which will be conducted in two rural batey neighborhoods (impoverished areas where Haitian migrant
workers reside) in the Haiti/Dominican Republic border. . Please use this link to access the application
(http://bit.ly/1227rut). All applications must be submitted by Wednesday, April 9, 2014 at 11:59pm.
Volunteer Dates
Team 1: July 2, 2014 – July 14, 2014
Team 2: July 12, 2014 – July 24, 2014
About Project Istwa
Project Istwa is a seven day photovoice workshop for children ages 10-14. During the project, each participant is
given a digital camera and have the opportunity to take pictures of their surroundings to show what a day in their life
looks like from their perspective. Working with facilitators, the children learn about their cameras and photography,
have shooting practice before photographing on their own, discuss which photos they chose to take, and at the end of
the week show their photos to their family and friends in a public exhibit in their neighborhood.
While the media coverage of Haiti is significant, particularly after the 2010 earthquake, the opportunities for
Haitians themselves to portray their views and perspectives directly are limited. The purpose of Project Istwa is to
allow participants to use photography to communicate what is important to them and how they see their world. We
have several goals for the project; first and foremost, the hope is that the children simply have fun and that they find
the project fulfilling. While that is the main priority, Project Istwa is also designed both as a community building
activity as the children will be participating in a group, but also as an empowering exercise that will hopefully leave
them with a feeling that their voices and perspectives matter.
After the initial workshop, which took place in the Cité Soleil neighborhood of Port-au-Prince with 11 participants,
we hope to replicate this project in different areas of Haiti. Projects in the bateyes (impoverished areas where
Haitian migrant workers reside on the Haiti/Dominican Republic border) are in process. Thus far we have completed
11 workshops in the departments of Ouest, Sud, Sud Est, Nippes, Grand’Anse, Nord, Nord Est, Nord Ouest,
Artibonite and Centre. The Project Istwa staff also hopes to develop initiatives to connect the children who
participate in the different projects so that they can see how others their age live in and view their lives in Haiti.
Volunteer Qualifications
We are looking for individuals who are passionate and have experience in public health, humanitarian assistance,
photography, youth development or international development. Ideal applicants are those who have a strong interest
in development and/or global health and are looking for a cross-cultural opportunity to work in a rural setting. All
volunteers must be at least 18 years old.
Volunteer Fundraising Requirement
Once accepted, all new volunteers are required to fundraise a minimum of $500 USD for Project Istwa, in addition
to a deposit of $500 USD. The deposit is refundable upon successful completion of the program. Local volunteers’
requirements vary.
Application Deadline
The deadline for applications for the summer 2014 workshops is Wednesday, April 9, 2014 at 11:59pm. In order to
apply, there are two steps:
1. Complete the online application at http://bit.ly/1227rut
