tdomf_26a6d — Wed, 17 Oct 2012 14:18:39 +0000

Sugati Publications is putting together a multidisciplinary team of interns for our Winter and Spring internship programs to work on our upcoming book, 51%: Women and the Future of Politics. The book has a national focus featuring prominent women leaders with publication expected in early 2013.

Ideal candidates will be majoring in: communications, journalism, new media, political science, social sciences, marketing or business. Interns will be assigned a specific project pertaining to the development and/or marketing of the book based on their majors and their interests (e.g., production of a promotional video about women and politics; development of social media marketing efforts, oversight of a Twitter campaign about the future of women and politics, and outreach to national leaders and organizations.) Women and men are encouraged to apply by 10.31.12.

This is a distance learning internship since we are seeking interns across the US for this campaign. All work can be performed off-site with computer/Internet access.

Mentors Needed: Bunim/Murray Productions Casting New Reality Program to Help Families in Need

We recently received the following note from one of the producers of a new television program. It reads as follows:

“I work in television and would like to honor more programs like yours. I am currently working on a documentary-style program and we are looking for candidates to help mentor teens. This program is designed to give specific families hope after their teen meets a mentor who is on their level. This mentor can help them better understand their own emotions and better communicate with the people in their lives.

Here is a little bit more about the show:

Bunim/Murray Productions (producers of Project Runway and the documentary, Autism: The Musical) is casting a new show designed to help families in need. We are looking for an inspiring and passionate MENTOR for a troubled teenager. This mentor will work with the family and teen to change the family dynamics and help the teenager get on the right path. We’re searching for a person who can successfully build a relationship with the teen and inspire positive life changes. If you or someone you know has the tools to evoke change and can effortlessly connect and communicate with a teen in crisis, please send photos and a description of your mentoring/social work or other related experience to mentorcasting {at} bunim-murray(.)com

We would love to give an amazing mentor a platform to show how much a dedicated friend could mean to a teen and their whole family. Please pass along this information or putting me in the right direction in hopes of finding the perfect mentor for this project? Or do you have a mentor in mind that might be interested in this experience?
