Digital Opportunity Trust (DOT) is a leading international social enterprise headquartered in Ottawa, Canada with local operations around the globe. DOT aims to transform young people (called DOT interns) into leaders by facilitating technology, business, and entrepreneurial education in their own communities. Since it’s inception in 2002, DOT has mobilized the talent and energy of over 4,500 interns worldwide. DOT’s programs have reached over 800,000 people in communities and schools around the world. Their Interns strive to become change agents, mentors, and role models. Because they are delivering DOT programs in communities they are personally familiar with, they are able to connect with local young people, women, and business owners. DOT Interns are recruited from local universities and colleges in the communities where DOT works.
