ECAASU / APIAVOTE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
In 2006, the George Washington University host committee for the East Coast Asian American Students Union (ECAASU) Conference donated $15,000 to APIAVote to manage an ECAASU/APIAVote Internship Program for the next five years. As a result, every summer priority will be given to an Asian Pacific American (APA) student with proven leadership skills and commitment to the APA community who is attending any college or university that is an active participant in ECAASU. The intern would work on establishing conference, workshop and training materials for APIAVote to be presented at APA regional conferences. This position will also entail hands on experience in organizing and implementing voter engagement to increase the participation of Asian and Pacific Islanders in the electoral process. In addition, the intern would be expected to serve as a public relations coordinator for the upcoming ECAASU conference while in Washington, DC. Download application here
NAPA / APIAVote INTERNSHIP PROGAM
The National Asian Pacific American Panhellenic Association (NAPA) began as the APIA Greek Alliance in the Summer of 2004 as a partnership in a "Get out the Vote" campaign with APIAVote. Seeing the successful collaboration's potential impact on the APIA community and on its campuses, the group began to take on more projects and eventually evolved into what NAPA is today. Through projects such as APIA Vote, Tsunami Relief, Katrina Relief and other partnerships, they have collaborated to address issues facing the Asian American fraternity and sorority community, as well as the Asian American community as a whole. NAPA is committed to a long term, ongoing relationship with APIAVote, and as a result have fundraised for the NAPA/APIAVote Internship Program. The internship is not limited to members of a greek lettered society. Download application here
