Partner Agencies

When you partner with AmeriCorps, you join a vast network of national and local nonprofits, schools, government agencies, faith-based, community organizations, and other groups committed to strengthening their communities through volunteering. Each year, we provide crucial funding and people power to over 2,000 nonprofit partners nationwide.
