Gap Year Opportunity: Impact America- AmeriCorps


 

Impact America is currently recruiting AmeriCorps members for the July/August 2023 cohort!

  • Impact America is a nonprofit organization that has offices in Birmingham, AL; Memphis, TN; Greenville, SC.
  • AmeriCorps members work to mitigate the effects of poverty, while also gaining professional skills and experience.
  • Impact America offers full-time and part-time AmeriCorps positions. Benefits include a living stipend, an education award (received upon completion of the service term), health insurance, professional development/training, and more!

Our program is a great fit for recent grads who are looking for a real-world, service-forced, professional experience.  AmeriCorps members serve through our two signature initiatives: SaveFirst and FocusFirst

  • SaveFirst provides America's hardest-working families with free tax preparation services and meaningful opportunities for savings.
  • FocusFirst ensures that children in urban and rural communities receive comprehensive vision care during their crucial formative years.

Our work through FocusFirst, allows students to learn more about the connection between health outcomes and poverty and is a great fit for those interested in pursuing a career in medicine or public health. Students can use their service year as a gap/bridge year before attending medical school or pursuing an advanced degree. 


The deadline to apply is March 31,2023!
