Welcome to the new year!

Congratulations to the 2012-13 VIP Fellow crew for making it to the end of the first week of the service term!



This year, our program includes 140 AmeriCorps members serving across 16 California counties.  VIP Fellows will send the upcoming year of service building sustainable volunteer programs at not-for-profit organizations such as food banks, school, women's shelters, libraries, and others that bring services to California's highest-need children and families.

Throughout the year, it is our goal to connect 16,800 volunteers who will give 84,000 hours of service to those most in need in our state.  We are excited to see all the great things we can get done with all of that effort!

Cheers to an inspiring new year!
