AmeriCorp-VISTA opportunity – starting in July!

Have you heard of the VISTA program? VISTA stands for Volunteers in Service to America. It isn’t a way to get rich (but you can survive!), but it IS a way to do a lot of good in your community. We will be hiring a VISTA who will spend one year helping HFHSCA develop a comprehensive fund development program. It will be a great position for an outgoing person who enjoys “people” contact, and writing, and researching what works and what doesn’t for non-profits like HFHSCA.

Know a veteran? Would s/he want to be a paid, p-t Fellow with HFHSCA?

Habitat for Humanity was just accepted as a host site for a Fellowship program through The Mission Continues!! The Mission Continues gives veterans Fellowship opportunities that pay the veteran a stipend to work 20 hours/week, for 6 months, at local non-profits (like Habitat for Humanity!) It’s a way for veterans to give back to their communities, show their leadership, and learn new skills – and it’s a way for non-profits like Habitat for Humanity to get talented people on board for 6 months.
