Leadership/paid internship opportunity for current Juniors – this is a VERY competitive program and if a student qualifies it would be an amazing resume booster!
-Ms. Wolfe
The Bank of America Charitable Foundation is now accepting applications for the 2021 Student Leaders® program. We will be selecting four local high school students to represent Tampa Bay in 2021. In light of your role at a local high school, we would like your help spreading the word. Please identify students that would be a good fit for the program and encourage them to apply.
About the Student Leaders Program:
Since 2005 the Bank of America Student Leaders Program has recognized more than 3,000 exemplary high school juniors and seniors who have 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 eight-week paid internship with a nonprofit organization selected by the bank. This internship is 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 Leaders Summit in Washington, D.C. from July 12-17, 2021. 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.
(The in-person internship and summit will be in line with local and national guidelines around gatherings and travel and may be subject to change.)
How to apply:
Students can apply for the program by going to www.bankofamerica.com/studentleaders. Please note the application deadline is January 29, 2021. There will be no deadline extensions.
