Take Action for AmeriCorps TODAY!

Submitted by lfreedman on Thu, 12/04/2008 - 12:57

We need your help now to close the funding gap for AmeriCorps and the National Service Trust.

Please call your Congress Members:

House: 202-225-3121
Senate: 202-224-3121

Please call your Congress Members today and:

  • Ask them to protect AmeriCorps funding so that programs can deliver much needed services to communities across the country
  • Tell them you are a constituent and an SCA alumni
  • Urge them to close the $41 million funding gap so that AmeriCorps students can continue serving hard-hit communities. AmeriCorps needs $424.5 million in program funding, which includes the $41 million, in the Omnibus bill

For more information, read the letter [1] to key members of the House and Seante Appropriations Committees.
