Youth Marketing Academy 6 Weeks Summer Internship

(Part-Time, July 13- August 22, 2026)

A youth-designed internship pilot that advances career readiness, leadership development, and real-world work experience for Detroit and Hamtramck high school students. The pilot will focus on building transferable skills in nonprofit marketing, digital commerce, and emerging technologies, including using AI tools to create and schedule online product listings across multiple sales platforms and developing creative digital content with year-round impact. Interns will work directly with the ONH Executive Director/ marketing business owner to launch this exciting new initiative and receive mentorship. Students will get opportunities to interact with professional volunteers in relevant fields connected to our organization, strengthening their exposure to career pathways and networks.

Students will be compensated $15 per hour for 20 hours per week for 6 weeks. Gift cards and prizes will be awarded to students each week for beating goals and sales targets. The intention is to turn this internship into an annual program for our organization, with potential job opportunities outside the 6 weeks for exceptional performance.
