Department Overview:
A 501c(3), Maydm provides girls and youth of color grades 6-12 with the skills, experiences, and connections to pursue careers in and change the face of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). We envision a world where all students know that a career in STEM is possible for them; a world where all students can pursue their dreams as entrepreneurs, developers, engineers, or professors in a STEM field.
Maydm, as an organization, was founded as a response to the overwhelming lack of technical training that meets the needs of low-income students, girls, and youth of color. Our programs offer opportunities for youth to develop knowledge and skills in science, technology, and engineering. Throughout the year, we offer one-day workshops independently and in partnership with other community organizations. In these sessions, students gain introductory insights into a STEM topic and begin growing their interest in STEM. Each summer, we offer a series of multi-week immersive programs where students gain in-depth technical knowledge as well as go on site visits to local companies and engage in critical conversations on confidence and equity and innovation. These experiences create opportunities and experiences for students who may not have otherwise been able to participate in holistic STEM learning, for students to change the face of STEM.
The Social Media and Marketing Intern will help maintain Maydm's communications strategy for all platforms. These include the website, social media sites, blog, and videos in an effort to elevate the organization's presence and increase community engagement in events and programs. This position works to grow awareness about Maydm's mission and impact through various areas, including media coverage and public relations. This intern will also assist with marketing campaigns through brainstorming, development, and other duties as needed.
We are seeking an experienced, enthusiastic person to coordinate Maydm communications and marketing. We are also especially seeking people of color, and bilingual (i.e. English/Spanish, English/Hmong) candidates for this position. We strongly encourage you to apply even if you think you have some, but not all of the requirements listed below. You may be exactly what we're looking for and if so, we'll teach you the rest.
