International Day of Charity is September 5th! 💛
We want to honor the spirit of generosity, compassion, and service that strengthens communities everywhere. AmeriCorps volunteers help expand the reach of charitable organizations every day by building capacity for nonprofits that uplift families and neighborhoods.

Charity isn’t just about giving. It’s about showing up, sharing kindness, and making sure communities have what they need to thrive.
