About N7
In 2000, Sam McCracken had a business idea to provide access to Nike products directly to Native American tribes to support health promotion and disease prevention programs. Seven years later, the Nike design team collaborated with various community experts and tribal leaders to create footwear specifically for the Native American community, called Nike Air Native N7. All proceeds from the Air Native N7 (sold through Native American community centers and tribes) are given back to youth sport and physical activity programs in Native communities across North America through the N7 Fund.
Sam McCracken, General Manager & Visionary of Nike N7 is looking for a student passionate about Native American Culture and Communities for this upcoming 2023 summer internship. The N7 team is a very special team with a specific and powerful mission! The ideal candidate should be passionate about Nike and the N7 mission and have a deep interest in community involvement.
As the N7 Intern, you will enable the team to launch, communicate, evaluate and deliver N7 projects and initiatives that support our mission. Tasks you may be involved with are scheduling, budgeting, organizing materials and communications, such as, handling information flow from your manager to other stakeholders, clients, or employees. You will be involved in meetings with our stakeholders and asked to follow up with vital parties who are assigned any responsibilities. Your insights will help craft the N7 strategy and drive engagement from our community.
