Content Creation Intern
About March For Our Lives (MFOL)
March For Our Lives is one of the most iconic youth movements in recent history—founded and led by young people demanding an end to gun violence. As we rebuild and grow, we’re looking for passionate, entrepreneurial team members ready to fuel a bold new chapter for this movement.
Position Overview
March for Our Lives is seeking a Content Creation Intern to join our dynamic team and help bring our mission to life through powerful storytelling—both visual and written. The ideal candidate is creative, detail-oriented, and passionate about using design, writing, and communications to drive social change.

You’ll collaborate closely with the Associate Director of Communications and Digital to create compelling visuals, social media content, and written materials that inspire engagement and advance one of the most influential youth-led movements in America.
This role requires a high level of maturity, enthusiasm for engaging with supporters, willingness to collaborate, and a “can do” attitude. Qualified applicants who are 25 years old (Gen-Z) and younger are highly encouraged to apply.
