Project GENESIS Summer Internship’s

The beginning of Passion, Innovation, & Future Workforce!

The Project GENESIS Internship program serves as an inaugural engagement opportunity for young individuals 14 to 18 years old. The program spans four weeks throughout the month of July allowing participants the chance to earn up to $1,632, through weekly stipends! Sponsored by the City of Columbus Recreation & Parks through Mayor Andrew J. Ginther’s efforts to support youth during the Summer, this initiative aims to provide invaluable experiences and opportunities for personal and professional growth.

During the four-week duration, youth will benefit from personalized 1-on-1 guidance and group coaching, while gaining hands-on experience. This career exploration includes ride alongs, job shadowing on authentic worksites, field trips and networking with industry professionals! Our program culminates with a dedicated community service day, “Street Sweep!” reinforcing the values of our responsibility to the community and boost social engagement.
