Internships available with PIRG

Hi,

Welcome back to campus! This semester, become a Student PIRG intern and
help to solve the big problems that our country faces.

Find out more at: https://www.studentpirgs.org/internships

This semester, our top priority is our campaign to solve global warming.
It's a big issue, but we’ve already got the solutions we need. For
example, last semester we organized an awesome event where we made
smoothies using solar power to demonstrate the practicality of solar
power. We even served one to a Congressman! We’ll also be making sure our
Congressmen hear from us as the Senate debates national clean energy
legislation this fall.

We're also running campaigns to improve public transit, fight hunger and
homelessness, and make sure meaningful health care reform legislation gets
passed this term.

Possible internships include:
Working with the local and state media to cover our events
Running petition drives and call-ins to our Senators to demonstrate
support for specific issues
Planning big events to educate and raise awareness of the campaign you
work on

As an intern you'll have an impact on issues that you care about and
you'll learn valuable skills like working with the media, public speaking,
and organizing large events. You can also earn course credit.

Sign up for an internship today: https://www.studentpirgs.org/internships

I look forward to working with you!

Thanks,

Krista
