Fellowship & Internship

Equipping volunteers in Northwest Arkansas to change the story of disability in their own lives and communities.

The 99 Balloons Fellowship & Internship Program takes place at our national office in Fayetteville, AR. It exists to provide local volunteers the opportunity to have a deeper connection with families and individuals experiencing disability beyond just attending events. Fellows & Interns will be given opportunities to serve and gain hands-on experience, while also growing in basic disability knowledge & being invited to help in the daily tasks of the organization whenever applicable.  Fellows & Interns will be equipped to better understand & implement what it looks like to continue to change the story of disability throughout their lives & bring inclusion into their community.
