Modern Mom Summer 2025 Internship Program Application

Modern Mom Summer 2025 Internship Program Application – Empowering the Next Generation of Creators & Changemakers

Are you a high school student passionate about storytelling, social media, design, or video content creation? Do you love the idea of inspiring and connecting with a global community online?

The Modern Mom Summer Internship Program is your chance to get real-world experience, build your portfolio, and potentially earn volunteer credit towards the Presidential Volunteer Service Award (PVSA) — a nationally recognized honor for community service.

This is a selective, volunteer internship where you’ll contribute creative content ideas and assets that may be featured across Modern Mom platforms. You’ll work directly with our editorial team, receive feedback on your work, and develop valuable content skills along the way.

We are accepting 3-5 interns for Summer 2025. Interns will track their volunteer hours, with the potential to qualify for the PVSA depending on participation level.

Must be organized, responsible, and able to meet deadlines.

Internship Perks:

✔️ Opportunity to contribute content that could be featured on ModernMom.com and our social platforms.

✔️ Mentorship and feedback from the Modern Mom team.

✔️ Official documentation of volunteer hours for the Presidential Volunteer Service Award.
