Did you know that AmeriCorps is on the chopping block in its 30th anniversary year? On July 24th, Voices for National Service, America's Service Commissions, Service Year Alliance, and The Corps Network are cohosting #Stand4Service Today, a virtual day of action. Join us! Congress is debating FY25 appropriations bills and catastrophic cuts to #AmeriCorps have been proposed. The House has proposed devastating cuts to funding that would ELIMINATE AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps NCCC programs and more than 71,000 service opportunities. We encourage you to use our tools to contact your members of Congress and tell them to reject proposed cuts and support an increased investment for #NationalService. Find out how to participate at https://lnkd.in/ef4CyXXS #AmeriCorpsWorks
