This federal Project Grant award of $920,682 from the Corporation for National and Community Service Office of Grants Management supports the Serve Kentucky Commission's efforts to increase volunteerism in the Commonwealth through the AmeriCorps Volunteer Generation Fund (VGF) program. The two-year award period runs from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2023. Serve Kentucky will utilize the funding to remove barriers to volunteerism, develop a robust regional volunteer connector organization program, increase youth involvement in volunteer service through Kentucky's school system, and provide free volunteer management resources to nonprofits. Sub-awards are provided to United Way of South Central Kentucky, the YMCA of Greater Louisville, and Northern Kentucky University Research Foundation to support these efforts at the local level. If successful, the initiatives aimed at strengthening nonprofit volunteer recruitment and management practices should help close gaps in economic, social, and racial justice for underserved communities in Kentucky by increasing the volunteer resources available through nonprofits and other organizations.
