  National AmeriCorps Week
May 13-20 is the first annual National AmeriCorps week! AmeriCorps Week is a weeklong recruitment and recognition event designed to bring more Americans into service, salute AmeriCorps members and alums for their powerful impact, and thank the community partners who make AmeriCorps possible.

AmeriCorps Week provides an opportunity for AmeriCorps members, alums, grantees, program partners, and friends to shine a spotlight on the work done by members in communities across the country – and to motivate more Americans to join AmeriCorps or volunteer in their communities.

This spring, the 500,000th AmeriCorps member will take the pledge to “get things done for America.

Share the love. Serve others. Don't hate, don't slander. Don't kill. You don't have to love everything our government does to recognize that some of it does work, and needs to continue and grow. Volunteer, it ain't that hard.
