Deadline for 2011 Bank of America Student Leaders Program is January 12th

Since its inception in 2004, the Bank of America Student Leaders Program has recognized more than 1,400 exemplary high school juniors and seniors with a passion for improving their communities in 45 markets across the U.S. and London. The program's goal is to cultivate and develop the next generation of community leaders.

The program has two components:

· An eight-week paid internship in the summer of 2011 with selected nonprofit organizations. These internships provide opportunities for the students to develop and apply leadership skills through hands-on work experience, while raising their awareness of community issues addressed by their Nonprofit Host Organization.

· A week-long all-expense paid Student Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., July 17-22. Conducted in partnership with the Close Up Foundation, the Summit introduces students to aspects of civic, nonprofit and business leadership and provides them with knowledge and skills they will use throughout their life to create positive community change.
