85% of our exceptional students would be unable to attend our programs without your generosity. Funds raised by this annual dinner support scholarships for highly qualified, ambitious
student leaders to attend our transformational TFAS academic internship programs. Thanks to sponsors
and attendees like you, the dinner has raised over $5 million since 1990. Yet the need is growing. Help
us say “yes” to more of our impressive applicants in 2020, regardless of their financial ability.
This comprehensive program includes: courses on economics and government relations for
transferable credit; guaranteed internships with government affairs offices of notable corporations,
trade associations and lobbying firms in the D.C. area; and unparalleled access to networking and professional development opportunities including special guest lectures, site briefings, a
mentorship program and more.

“ My favorite part of this program was having the opportunity to learn on a day-by-day basis from professionals in the government relations industry because it is only through effective advocacy that we can ensure government policies reflect private citizen’s interests.” – EDGAR VELASCO, INTERN, METLIFE
