Summer 2012 8-wk Paid Internship Applications
Bank of America High School Student Leaders Program
application deadline of January 25, 2012
The Bank of America Charitable Foundation’s Student Leaders® Program is accepting applications for the 2012 program for students in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties that are current Juniors or Seniors in high school. We would like your help to spread the word about the Student Leaders Program, an exciting leadership opportunity, of which we are certain will be welcomed by your community partners, friends, neighbors and colleagues.
Since its inception in 2004, the Bank of America Student Leaders Program has recognized more than 1,600 exemplary high school juniors and seniors with a passion for improving their communities. The program helps students gain a greater understanding of how nonprofits create impact in the community and helps develop them as the next generation of community leaders through two components:
· A summer 2012 eight-week paid internship with selected nonprofit organizations designed to provide opportunities for the students to develop and apply leadership skills through hands-on work experience, while raising their awareness of community issues addressed by their Host Organization.
· A week-long all-expense paid Student Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., July 15-20. Conducted in partnership with the Close Up Foundation, the Summit introduces students to aspects of civic, social and business leadership and provides them with knowledge and skills they will use throughout their life to create positive community change.
In order to spread the word about the opportunities available you may forward this to many of your members, partners, and affiliates, in the manner appropriate for your organization (email, electronic newsletter, website, etc.). Please note the application deadline of January 25, 2012. We anticipate some really great applications so we encourage students to complete a thoughtful and well written application for consideration.
Posters are also available to help advertise the program. If you would like posters, please contact us and we will send them to you.
We appreciate your help to spread the word about the Bank of America Student Leaders Program. Students can apply for the program by going to www.bankofamerica.com/neistudentleaders
