About SAIC Giving Day 2025 ๐Ÿ’š

Internships are the doorway into the professional world, but many art and design internships are unpaid, preventing many students from being able to accept these vital career-building opportunities. This Giving Day, you can remove barriers for students by funding stipends to offset the cost of summer internships that are unpaid, underpaid, or in high-cost regions. Investing in internship stipends is one of the most direct ways to ensure the success of the next generation of artists, designers, and scholars—providing them with hands-on learning experience and lasting professional connections.
