Serve Virginia serves organizations that strengthen their communities through volunteerism and service.
Serve Virginia works with cross-sector partners such as the Volunteer Center Network of Virginia and the Governor’s Advisory Board on Volunteerism and National and Community Service to promote a sustainable, collaborative statewide system of volunteer service. Serve Virginia manages the AmeriCorps State grant program, which provides funding to a broad network of public and nonprofit community-based organizations.
AmeriCorps engages members in direct service and capacity-building to address crucial community needs. AmeriCorps service members serve full-time, part-time for one year, or during the summer. Examples of member activities include: tutoring and mentoring youth, building affordable housing, teaching computer skills, cleaning parks and streams, running after-school programs, and helping communities respond to disasters.
