The FACC was founded in order to promote and develop business among its members. We account for several hundreds of members, ranging from small business owners to large corporations. We offer several types of membership that provide benefits, such as business referrals, advertising and business services, as well as legal services.
We also regularly organize networking events, galas, and workshops in order to gather our membership base in a face-to-face setting.
The FACC was officially launched in January 2014 with the help an enthusiasm of the French Consul. We have been growing very quickly since.

Because of large distances in Los Angeles, the possibility to work from home will be offered 2-3 times a week depending on the workload.

The Intern will be required to participate to our events and will be responsible for managing a team of volunteers. Events usually happen once a month on week days from 6 to 10pm.
A car and a valid driver license are strongly recommended for commuting in Los Angeles.
