Students at St. Peters Preparatory School are invited to apply to the Civics and Activism Remote Internship with TurnUp, a 501(c)(3) non-partisan non-profit organization dedicated to increasing youth civic education, empowerment, and engagement. They have been working with high school students year round since 2019 and we are excited to bring this invitation to students at St. Peters Preparatory School. Here is the application link.
The internship’s format is tailored to accommodate the ever fluctuating commitments and responsibilities of your students. The program is fully remote, offers rolling admission and has a flexible time frame and schedule. Students will have the opportunity to grow into more capable and responsible citizens and to develop their professional skills. Students join remote teams that are energized by students from around the country who work on amplifying youth civic engagement. Along with the unique curriculum, peer to peer learning and expert speakers deepen their experience.
The program is free and the hours students commit can be counted as community service hours. TurnUp is authorized to give out awards and certificates, including The President’s Volunteer Service Award. The internship has also been invaluable for dedicated interns to extend the impact of their learning and growth into earning college letters of recommendation and for bolstering their resumes.
The application link is here at bit.ly/tuinternship and the deadline for applications is rolling.
