Since 2021, Sunshine Action has been in the process of establishing a new branch office in the USA. We would like to invite students interested in completing a summer internship with a charity to help us with a wide range of tasks for our US and Hong Kong branches involving planning and organising humanitarian programs and events. We are aiming to focus on practical actions and events during this internship. Some examples of responsibilities you could have are given below.

  • Plan and implement physical poverty-relief programs such as donating the Sunshine Food Bags full of essential food and items to low-income families
  • Promote and organize the Sunshine Chari-thon in different States
  • Develop partnerships and liaise with local charities for event management
  • Assist with marketing efforts and promotion to volunteers
  • Create the short video about the Sunshine Internship to be used to promote in different Universities
  • Contact companies for donations and resources
  • Organise fundraising events and write grant proposals
  • Propose and develop unique charitable events or projects

Internship Period

Flexible start date in Jan - Sept 2025 for a minimum of 10 weeks, this can be arranged and negotiated with each intern.

 

Location

For the US branch, the internship will be in hybrid format, with preference for candidates located around New York City. All events organised will be in person. All work will be done remotely from home apart from tasks that involve visiting partners and running events, since Sunshine Action does not have a physical office in the USA. Regular meetings will mostly take place online.

 

Eligibility

Open to all years.
