I joined the Board of Conservation Corps because I thought it was a wonderful organization that supported areas I love: youth development, service, and environmental stewardship. Eric learned so much when he worked in the Summer Youth Corps and I'm excited that he will be working along side the AmeriCorps member this summer as well.
I have learned that AmeriCorps service can be financially challenging, and that the opportunity to serve is not available equally to everyone. To support Conservation Corps members in their service and attract a diverse group of members who might not be able to serve, the Corps is establishing an AmeriCorps member emergency fund. The emergency fund will provide one-time financial assistance to AmeriCorps members who are facing a financial hardship. Will you contribute to the emergency fund today?
The AmeriCorps member emergency fund will help the Corps attract and retain diverse and unrepresented communities, advancing the Corps’ Justice, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion goals. With your help we can help ensure that AmeriCorps members are able to successfully complete their service and develop the skills they need to join the natural resource field or succeed in the career of their choice.
