provides students the opportunity to gain leadership, communication, and
practical skills in a professional setting and in their areas of interest,
while serving their communities. The program gives ARCSV the ability to better
fulfill its mission and services to the community by benefiting from the skills
and dedication of a committed group of student interns.
Program
The
Summer Internship Program is an eight week program held between the months of
June-August .Interns will work through Silicon Valley Chapter’s main office,
the San Jose Office (2731 N. First St. San Jose CA)
All
internships through the program are unpaid; however, academic credit can be
given if applicable to an intern’s situation. Students can also fulfill
community service requirements through their participation in the program.
Intern Requirements
Summer
interns must be students enrolled at accredited high schools, colleges, or
universities. Selected interns should
have a genuine interest in the American Red Cross and accept its Seven
Fundamental Principals into their value systems. Ideally, interns will
continue their involvement with the American Red Cross after completing their
internship, although it is not a program requirement. Interns must be available
to commit at least 10-15 hour per week for the duration of the internship.

makes no discrimination based on place of residence, sex, national origin,
