Americorps
AmeriCorps is a network of national service programs that engage more than 50,000 Americans each year in intensive service to meet critical needs in education, public safety, health, and the environment. AmeriCorps members serve through more than 2,100 nonprofits, public agencies, and faith-based organizations. They tutor and mentor youth, build affordable housing, teach computer skills, clean parks and streams, run after-school programs, and help communities respond to disasters. Created in 1993, AmeriCorps is part of the Corporation for National and Community Service, which also oversees Senior Corps and Learn and Serve America. Together these programs engage more than 2 million Americans of all ages and backgrounds in service each year.

City Year
An Action Tank for national service, City Year seeks to demonstrate, improve, and promote the concept of national service as a means for building a stronger democracy. An 'action tank' is both a program and a 'think tank' — constantly combining theory and practice to advance new policy ideas, make programmatic breakthroughs, and bring about major changes in society.
City Year's vision is that one day, the most commonly asked question of a young person will be, "Where are you going to do your service year?"

Peace Corps
Since 1961, the Peace Corps has shared with the world America's most precious resource — its people. Peace Corps Volunteers serve in 72 countries in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central and South America, and the Middle East. Collaborating with local community members, volunteers work in areas like education, youth outreach and community development, the environment, and information technology.
