Grant Opportunities with AmeriCorps

We’re excited to share two amazing grant opportunities through AmeriCorps. In addition to available funding, check out the three sessions to learn more and get involved at the Summit.

AmeriCorps 2019/20 Program Funding Opportunity

Have you ever considered hosting an AmeriCorps program?
AmeriCorps grants are awarded to eligible organizations proposing to engage AmeriCorps members in evidence-based or evidence-informed interventions to strengthen communities. An AmeriCorps Member is an individual who is recruited by the host organization and engages in community service through an approved national service position. We ar looking to build a diverse portfolio.

South Carolina Volunteer Generation Fund Partner Application

This South Carolina Volunteer Generation Fund (SC-VGF) grant opportunity aims to provide partner agencies with the necessary financial resources needed to implement evidence-based strategies that will increase their ability to engage and retain volunteers. UWASC will provide training and technical assistance as well as make available grants of up to $25,000 to an estimated 10 eligible entities.

The South Carolina Commission on National and Community Service was established in 1993 to identify critical needs of our state and award CNCS funded grants to programs to address key challenges. Our mission is to improve South Carolina communities through volunteerism and national service programs.
