AmeriCorps Alums Service Project - Oct. 17 - Sign up Now

AmeriCorps Alums Service Project - Oct. 17 - Sign up Now

Our next AmeriCorps Alums service project for the NYC area is New York Cares Day (Oct. 17). An AmeriCorps Alums Team has been placed at an awesome school in Brooklyn. Volunteers will be painting hallways and classrooms, painting murals and planting bulbs around the school and it's also a press site—pretty ideal.

Not in the NYC area? The please check the AmeriCorps Alums web site (americorpsalums.org) and find your local chapter. And if you don't see a local chapter, you can start one! Don't see an event to join, you can also host your own service project!
Here is how to sign up for the NYC event:

To sign up for New York Cares Day:

• Visit www.newyorkcaresday.org
• Select "Register Here"
• Choose "Join a Team," and then select "AmeriCorps Alumni" from the drop down menu
• Fill in all of the fields and follow the prompts to complete your registration
• As an AmeriCorps Alum you will receive a discount on the Registration Fee for the event (it's also a fundraiser so we can help New York Cares do all that they do). When you come to the Registration Fee section, please enter the discount code "NYCD008" to receive a $10 discount on the donation to register.

Yours in Service,
Neal
