Gap Year Opportunity: AmeriCorps- Hands of Hope



I am Darean Talmadge and I am reaching out to share an AmeriCorps service year opportunity with you, caring for infants and children up to age six who are at risk for abuse and neglect in Houston, TX. Hands of Hope AmeriCorps members will serve these vulnerable children throughout a 12-month commitment, living in a private, gated community and receiving a $23,800 annual living allowance, paid bi-weekly.
Hands of Hope members will work collaboratively with other AmeriCorps Members in the home to ensure that children’s physical, emotional, and mental needs are met. While the commitment to our organization is only one year, the impact AmeriCorps Members have on the children in their care is lifelong. In turn, the children’s strength, resilience, and love will also make a lifelong impact on them.
 
We are currently accepting applications for the Fall 2023-Summer 2024 service year. Thank you in advance for sharing this opportunity with your students. An informational flier is attached, and our application can be found at:  https://www.casahope.org/hands-of-hope-application
 
For more information, please contact Darean Talmadge 713-529-0639 dtalmadge@casahope.org 
We are so grateful for your partnership.
