Job Description
About the Brian Hamilton Foundation:
The Brian Hamilton Foundation believes in entrepreneurship for all. Our mission is to increase business ownership across the world because it is the most reliable way to remove the socioeconomic barriers to freedom. We teach people why and how to start businesses—mostly simple ones that don’t require capital—and help them get started by bootstrapping, the way almost all entrepreneurs begin.
Part of the Brian Hamilton Foundation’s offerings are Starter U and Starter High—free, on-demand entrepreneurship courses for adults and youth, which have been taken by more than 30,000 people to date. To learn more, visit brianhamilton.org.
About the SOUL Program for High School Students:
The Brian Hamilton Foundation SOUL Program is a selective, paid summer internship for high-achieving high school students. Interns work on real projects in areas such as marketing, public relations, community outreach, growth automation, partnership development, and social media, gaining professional experience inside a high-impact nonprofit led by entrepreneur Brian Hamilton.
SOUL stands for Speed, Ownership, Unreasonableness, and Love for those we serve, the core tenets of our culture across the Brian Hamilton family of companies.
Interns will own projects that grow our brand and expand the reach of our entrepreneurship programs. While specific projects will be determined closer to the summer, examples include outreach to media outlets, nonprofits, community leaders, correctional institutions, and schools and universities, as well as recruiting, writing articles and blog posts, capturing and posting social media content, and more.
