Program
Year 2010 Grants
The Ohio Community Service Council is pleased to announce availability of funding to support new Ohio AmeriCorps programs to start in the Fall of 2010! Funding is available for planning, operating, fixed-amount, or education award grants.
The national service movement is gaining tremendous momentum as a result of the recent passage of the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act. This historic legislation will bring new opportunities for individuals, organizations, agencies, and supporters of volunteerism and community service.
AmeriCorps funds are available to nonprofit organizations, state/local government units, higher education institutions, faith-based organizations, and 501(c)3 entities. The new national priorities include: education, healthy futures, clean energy/environment, veterans, and economic opportunity.
