The Washington Bus is offering an interesting paid summer internship opportunity.
The Washington Bus is a statewide non-partisan movement-building organization that seeks to increase the political power and participation of young people across Washington State, while developing the next generation of leaders and organizers.
The Washington Bus is now recruiting Summer Fellows for a ten-week paid political, social justice, political power-building, and organizing program for young people. The Fellowship is part-time and is open to 18-25-year-olds in Washington state. Fellows spend the summer organizing young people, working on issue campaigns, turning out the youth vote, and learning about social justice, power building, and politics in Washington state. Fellows leave the program having made an impact on Washington Bus campaigns, with the skills to make real change in their communities, and a network of Bus family and friends to support them beyond the program.
The Washington Bus Fellowship is a 20-hour-a-week, 10 weeks long program starting the week of June 11th, 2024. This program is based in Seattle and housing will be provided for folks who aren’t from the Seattle area or can’t commute regularly. The priority consideration deadline is Wednesday, April 3rd, and the final application deadline is Saturday, April 20th at 11:59 pm. Fellows are paid $20 per hour throughout the program, or can opt to use that money as scholarship funds towards higher education (to be paid directly to the college/university).
