Entry Level Jobs With Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation
When I saw the name and location of Winston Salem, North Carolina's Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, I was instantly reminded of one of my favorite recent reads--Thank You for Smoking by Christopher Buckley. A North Carolina based non-profit with Reynolds in it name has to be tied to the tobacco industry, and it is. "The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation was established in 1936 as a memorial to the youngest son of the founder of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company," and it seems to be one of the few good things that has come out of the tobacco industry--"a trust for charitable works in the State of North Carolina." The Foundation is focused on making grants to non-profit organizations in the areas of Community Economic Development, Democracy and Civic Engagement, the Environment, Pre-Collegiate Education, and Social Justice and Equity, which, in my opinion, is a huge improvement on the other things associated with the Reynolds name.
