Bring Together Lithuania

"Bring Together Lithuania," summer internship program initiated and sponsored by the Kazickas Family Foundation, provides Lithuanian diaspora youth (ages 18-26) with an opportunity to acquire professional skills, meet global Lithuanians and explore Lithuania. Program matches global Lithuanian youth with leading companies, innovative startups, and public sector organizations for an unforgettable 6 weeks to rediscover modern Lithuania.

 

In 2018 the pilot program “We Connect Lithuania 2018” was successfully developed together with the Kazickas Family Foundation and GLL (Global Lithuanian Leaders). Following year, the initiative invited students to experience modern Lithuania through two separate programs - "Bring Together Lithuania" and "We Connect Lithuania".

 

In 2019 "Bring Together Lithuania" successfully continued the mission of the previous summer internship program and was based on the experiences of "We Connect Lithuania 2018". The program is led by Kamile Naraite and is supported and powered by the Kazickas Family Foundation.

 

"Bring Together Lithuania 2020" program will be held from June 14 - July 24, 2020.

Application process is open until December 29, 2019.

- “KFF is a proud supporter of Bring Together LT, a summer internship program for youth of Lithuanian heritage. We feel it is important for young people to visit the land of their ancestors, have an opportunity to interact with those of their own age, and most importantly, engage in worthwhile programs that expand their knowledge and experience.” - Jurate Kazickas, The Kazickas Family Foundation


- "Now, after discovering modern Lithuania thanks to the program and learning about so many opportunities, especially in the biotechnology area, I want to come back. At least for a couple of years, I'd like to live and work here." - Marius Mereckis, USA (internship at Droplet Genomics).

 

- "The program team has offered me many different career opportunities in Lithuania. I was fascinated by the international environment of "Girteka Logistics", therefore I have chosen to have the internship there. There were many opportunities for professional development - I have had the opportunity to take part in everyday processes, I was responsible for important projects and had a chance to deepen knowledge in the field of marketing." - Emilia Strazdis, USA

 

- "I am very fortunate to have been part of We Connect Lithuania, and while I, of course, wish it could be longer, I know what I have seen and done with stick with me for a very long time to come. I ambition to represent US security interests abroad, and I believe that my time here will guide me back to Lithuania, perhaps in some greater capacity of usefulness." Nathan Radtke, USA
