According to the 2025 rankings list, The Fellowship placed in the top half of 50 organizations nationwide ranking 21st, and placed 7th out of 22 amongst mid-sized employers, marking its third consecutive top 10 ranking in that category.

The NonProfit Times partners with Best Companies Group (BCG) annually to identify nonprofit organizations where leaders have excelled in creating quality workplaces. Nonprofits across the U.S. completed a two-part survey process, including a review of their workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems, and demographics, and completed an employee survey to measure the employee experience. BCG managed the overall process, analyzed the data, and determined the ranking.

“Even with rising global antisemitism and evil acts of terror dominating the headlines seemingly every day since October 7, 2023, our incredible team continues to provide lifesaving solutions, aid and care to the people of Israel and the Jewish people both in Israel and around the world,” said Fellowship U.S. CEO and Global Chief Operating Officer, Robin Van Etten. “I am also continually humbled by the best-in-class level of professionalism, unwavering dedication and personal care every member of our team brings to their role each day—whether working with partners, donors, our beneficiaries or simply one another, being awarded this honor for a third consecutive year and fifth time overall speaks volumes to the strength of our global culture, and that we truly are “One Fellowship.”

The Fellowship, which is Israel’s largest provider of humanitarian aid, has provided more than $157 million in emergency aid and ongoing assistance to hundreds of thousands of Israelis affected by the ongoing war following the attacks of October 7, 2023, and continues to meet the needs as they arise.

D.Law NextGen Academy Expands with Launch of Summer Internship Program for High School Students

By

LOS ANGELES, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Building on the momentum of its recently announced Summer Associate Program, D.Law’s NextGen Academy is proud to introduce a new initiative aimed at reaching even earlier into the talent pipeline: the D.Law Summer Internship Program for high school students.

This immersive, part-time program spans four weeks and reflects the firm’s continued commitment to mentoring and inspiring the next generation of legal professionals—not just at the law school level, but among promising high school students who may be encountering the legal field for the first time.

A First Look Inside the Internship

Designed for current 11th and 12th grade students, the Summer Internship Program offers an invaluable opportunity to gain real-world experience at a plaintiff-side employment law firm. Taking place on-site at D.Law’s Glendale office, the program introduces interns to a professional legal environment through a blend of interactive workshops and hands-on projects.

Interns will receive guidance on creating resumes and LinkedIn profiles, practice job interviews, gain a foundational understanding of employment rights, and hear directly from legal professionals during engaging Q&A sessions. Every aspect of the program is geared toward building workplace readiness and confidence—tools that will benefit students far beyond the summer.

A Mission of Mentorship

“The Summer Internship Program is about early exposure to empowerment,” said Arsheen Qader, Director of the Internship Program. “We want high school students—especially those who may never have imagined a future in law—to see how capable and valued they already are. By giving them practical experience and connecting them with role models in the field, we’re planting seeds that could grow into careers devoted to justice, advocacy, and impact.”

Director of People and Culture Karen Daniel sees the internship as a natural extension of the firm’s values. “We believe in sharing knowledge and fostering growth. This program is about investing in future advocates, regardless of how early they are in their journey,” he said. “We want young people to know there’s a place for them here—especially if they’re passionate about fairness, justice, and standing up for others.”

How to Apply

The Summer Internship Program is paid, and open to students currently in 11th and 12th grade. Applicants must submit a resume, an unofficial transcript, and a one-page cover letter explaining why they’re a strong fit for the program.

More information on the Summer Internship Program is available at www.d.law/summer-internship
