Enhance & Expand your Existing Community Service Program by Partnering with AmeriCorps

Funding is available for multi-state, Institutions of Higher Education, & State Education Agency AmeriCorps Programs. The 2005 AmeriCorps Guidelines and the AmeriCorps*Education Awards Program 2005 Application Instructions can be found on the Corporation?s website at <a href="http://www.americorps.org/resources/2005guidelines/index.html">http://www.americorps.org/resources/2005guidelines/index.html</a>.

A conference call will be held for anyone who is interested in learning more about the AmeriCorps*Education Awards Program grant opportunity. The AmeriCorps*Education Awards Program funds multi-state, Institutions of Higher Ed, and State Education Agencies that administer Education Award Programs. If the program you propose would operate within one state, rather than in two or more states, and your organization is not an Institution of Higher Ed. or a State Education Agency, then an AmeriCorps*Education Award Program grant is not right for you. For single-state programs, please contact your local state service commission.

The conference call will be Tuesday, February 15th 2:00-3:30 p.m. (Eastern Time). Call-in information is as follows:

USA Toll Free Number: 888-455-3614
