Please submit any relevant internships or opportunities for undergraduates (both at EA and non-EA orgs) here.
It seems odd that you’re crowdsourcing submissions and that you don’t share which opportunities you’re already aware of — many people filling out your form could waste time by submitting information on the same role or a role you’re already aware of. In particular, I don’t currently expect that it would be worthwhile for me to share roles through the form, since there’s very likely no counterfactual effect. And you should be
checking/emailing most EA and related organizations, and
checking all of the existing EA internship boards you can find
anyway to get information on whatever summer programs they’ll have, so any submissions on roles you’d have found anyway would be wasted. So I urge you to search exhaustively for roles and share a list of roles you’re aware of before asking for submissions.
(Additionally, you could reduce time wasted by overlapping submissions and increase people’s willingness to contribute by allowing people to just submit a few links rather than so many details.)
Cool. I’m excited about what you’ve found, I’ll submit any roles for undergraduates I know of that aren’t yet on your airtable, and I look forward to sharing your website with my college group when it’s ready!

The fields in the form are all optional (or at least now they are), so you could just submit a link.
This sounds good; thanks for doing it. A comment:
