What is the Emma Bowen Foundation?
The Foundation was established in 1989 by the media industry to increase access to job opportunities for minority students. Students work for partner organizations from their last summer in high school through their senior year of college during the five-year summer only program. For the three-year, year-around program, college freshmen receive experience in various aspects of the sponsoring organization, from operations and production to administrative functions. Both programs focus on scholastic achievement, direct work experience, and professional development.
