Brunswick High School Intern: Student Series

Save to Favorites

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society seeks High School Students interested in an internship to lead their county feeder system’s Student Series Campaign. Student Series is about changing students, by helping them develop life skills and connecting them with science, research and advocacy. The intention is to inspire the cancer researchers of tomorrow in teaching them about things like leadership, teamwork and the importance of giving back. This includes changing their understanding of blood cancers through LLS provided hands-on experiential activities and lessons that meet common core standards.
