Applications Now Open for the Sarasota Chamber’s Summer Internship Program

April 4, 2022 – Sarasota

Opportunities For All (OFA), a program of the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce, is now accepting applications for the second year of the Summer Internship program. This ten-week program provides a win-win opportunity for local employers to have a diverse intern for the summer.  Providing bright, talented, future leaders with the opportunity to broaden their exposure to the professional work world not only benefits employers, it contributes to the overall growth of the community and economy.

In its inaugural year, 2021, the OFA Summer Internship program successfully placed 21 interns with 17 local businesses.  Over the course of the program, interns were able to experience a business environment and explore different career opportunities within departments.  Intern applicants must be a High School graduate or older.  Employers involved in the program must be Sarasota Chamber members.

This experience is fully funded by the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce through the Opportunities For All grant provided by Charles & Margery Barancik Foundation.

Interested employers and interns can apply on the Sarasota Chamber website.
