E-Blast: Bank of America Student Leaders Program for High School Juniors and Seniors

November 10, 2021 11:12 AM

Dear Providers:

The Bank of America Charitable Foundation’s Student Leaders® Program is accepting applications from juniors and seniors in high school for the 2022 Student Leaders® program. The application deadline is January 28, 2022.  

Since its inception in 2004, the Bank of America Student Leaders Program has recognized more than 2,500 exemplary individuals 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. 
  • The week-long, all-expense paid Student Leaders Summit in Washington, D.C. from July 25 – 30, 2022 is conducted in partnership with the Close Up Foundation where 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-person events will be in line with local and national guidelines for gatherings and travel and may be subject to change.)

Students can visit the Student Leaders page to learn more and start the application process.  

Thank you.
