Public Relations Intern

Many capable people face the “experience paradox”: employers want experience, but gaining it often depends on someone giving you a first opportunity. GlowUp ACS is a nonprofit that helps emerging professionals bridge that gap through meaningful, hands-on opportunities to develop practical skills, contribute to real projects, and gain experience they can apply throughout their careers.

We’re currently rebuilding after funding changes required us to scale back some of our programming. That makes this a unique time to join GlowUp ACS. Associate Interns can contribute directly to the systems, projects, and programs supporting our next stage of growth while gaining firsthand experience working within a small nonprofit where their contributions can have a visible impact.

Research press and partnership opportunities.
Support media outreach and follow-ups.
Help manage PR databases and organize press mentions.

What You’ll Need

Strong writing and editing skills.
Interest in public relations, journalism, or communications.
An organized, communicative, and proactive mindset.
Reliable computer/laptop, stable Wi-Fi, and a webcam/microphone.

What You’ll Gain

Hands-on nonprofit public relations experience for your resume and LinkedIn.
Experience supporting press outreach, media research, campaign communications, and storytelling.
Mentorship and feedback, with access to professional development resources as capacity allows.
Optional college credit where your school offers it, with documentation provided on request.
