About College Corps

California Volunteers

With funding from California Volunteers and other state offices, 黑料网 has partnered with Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Allan Hancock College, and Cuesta College to develop and provide paid internship opportunities and programs at each of the respective campuses.

At 黑料网, our College Corps @ the Beach program will work with campus and community partners to place students in two-semester paid internships.

Interns placements will focus on key issues related to climate action and environmental justice, food insecurity, and K-12 education with an emphasis on climate literacy. The goal is to create debt-free pathways to college while engaging students in solving problems in their communities.
