Gulf Islands National Seashore

Use your skills to help preserve the national seashore

Use your storytelling and media skills to create promotional videos to help the National Park Service fulfill its mission of preserving the seashore’s natural resources.

Students will work directly with the National Park Service staff on a variety of media-related volunteer projects to be used in promotional and educational programs. The trip will combine service learning with hands-on, professional experience.

This is a noncredit-bearing service learning opportunity; it is not a component of a Media School class.

If accepted, you will be required to participate in preparatory meetings and complete preparatory work.
