Federal Project Grant Award Summary

Positive Maturity, Inc. received a $353,005 Project Grant award dated June 24, 2026, from the Corporation for National and Community Service's Office of Grants Management to fund the 2026-27 AmeriCorps Seniors Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP, CFDA 94.002). The award, which runs through March 31, 2029, supports the mobilization of volunteers aged 55 and older to address community needs across Alabama. RSVP volunteers engaged through this funding will deliver services including tutoring and mentoring of children, workforce development and job-readiness training support, food security program assistance, disaster preparedness and mitigation support, and service to veterans and military families. Volunteers retain flexibility in determining their service commitment, ranging from a few hours to 40 hours weekly.

As an established AmeriCorps Seniors program operator in Alabama, Positive Maturity will leverage this grant to recruit, train, and manage senior volunteers while coordinating their placement in community-based service positions. The organization must provide a 10% statutory match (with a budgeted match of 26.74%) and is approved for pre-award costs beginning 30 days prior to the award date. This funding represents part of Positive Maturity's ongoing portfolio of Corporation for National and Community Service grants, which collectively support three AmeriCorps Seniors programs serving vulnerable populations and engaging economically disadvantaged seniors across multiple Alabama counties.
