'El Futuro' Business Internship Program

Every business has realized that establishing a link between the workforce of today and the workforce of tomorrow is one of the most effective methods of assuring future success.

As we endeavor to create a stronger and sustainable economic infrastructure, we must focus on developing a strong workforce for today and our future.

To that end, San Mateo County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is creating ‘El Futuro’ Business Internship Program to:

Mentor Latino students to encourage and motivate them to complete their college education and provide career development opportunities to ensure their success.
Offer paid internship opportunities for Latino college students to gain professional work experience either through the Chamber and/or with local business owners. The internship is for low-income college students and the stipends will serve to alleviate the economic hardship they face.
Provide Latino students the opportunity to develop valuable skills and garner work experience that will assist them in their future career.
Train students in the following areas: marketing, business development, public speaking, leadership skills, computer and technology, budgeting, civic engagement and research.
Teach the value of creating and maintaining a strong network by connecting them to key influential community, business and government officials that could be instrumental in their life and career.
