Ethnic Organizations
These community organizations are dedicated to the service of (and in most cases administered by) a particular racial, ethnic, or cultural group.
Organizations marked as "FWS" have signed contracts with Loyola University to hire one or more Loyola students through the community-based Federal Work-Study program. Fuller descriptions of each organization, as well as posted volunteer, intern, and paid positions with these and other Chicago-area and national agencies, can be found on Loyola's RamblerLink system.
