Since 2006 The Washington, D.C War of 1812 Bicentennial Commission (the Commission) has been an educational, conservation and preservation nonprofit 501 C (3) organization (BHS). The Commission is the only official District of Columbia’s War of 1812 Bicentennial Commission—by the District of Columbia City Council Resolution in 2009. The Commission offers all kinds of internships and volunteer opportunities. Some of which you may have never considered before: skilled internship, volunteering, serving on our nonprofit board member peer group, building a virtual library or museum. Building a computer lab and work with experts in our field work school. Professionals may use their expertise to mentor a student or visit a school as an expert speaker!
The Commission prepares students with skills and training in under-represented degree areas and/or professional areas: geography, engineering, technology, archaeology, and other science fields. The Commission and its partners matches high school students in one-on one mentoring relationships. With the support of their mentor, students develop experimental science research projects on scientific and/or technological topics borne of their own interest. Students who participate in the War of 1812 Mentoring Project gain valuable scientific, mathematical, and technological, research and writing experience that serves them in their future endeavors.
