Girl Power: Our Female Alums Show Where AmeriCorps Works!
March is National Women’s History Month and we want to celebrate the beautiful women who have served their country through AmeriCorps. Did you know more than 2/3rds of members in AmeriCorps are women? Also, women volunteer significantly more than men, in every state across the nation.
Now, before us men get our “service” in a bunch, we’ve got to give it up to the women for representing in AmeriCorps and consistently sharing their stories to inspire others.
This post is dedicated to the women (and a few men!) who have shown us, that at their job, “AmeriCorps Works Here!”
