Offered in Partnership with: PennSERVE, Proud In-Flight Entertainment Sponsor of the 2023 Collaborative Conference

Did you know that PennSERVE could help you set up an AmeriCorps program to help your organization soar to new heights? That’s right, PennSERVE, a grantmaking partner of the AmeriCorps agency, connects individuals and organizations through service and volunteering to tackle the nation’s most pressing challenges. Each year, they award about $12 million in federal funding from the AmeriCorps agency to AmeriCorps programs here in PA.

Join PANO and PennSERVE for this 30-minute overview about AmeriCorps and how it can help your organization, your mission, and your community! With a wide variety of grant opportunities, AmeriCorps provides multiple options for organizations to leverage support and expand operations. For more information on AmeriCorps in Pennsylvania and how it might be the right fit for you, please visit www.dli.pa.gov/pennserve.

This workshop is being offered free of charge by our friends at PennSERVE, proud sponsors of the 2023 Collaborative Conference. You do not need to have attended the conference in order to attend this workshop, but we invite you to learn more about Landing the Plane (Without Wrecking It) here.

About the 2023 Collaborative Conference:

We did it! For the first time since 2019, we learned together, laughed together, dined together, and probably whined together, too (hey, a little venting among friends is healthy!) – in person AND online at the 2023 Collaborative Conference.

With our theme of Landing the Plane (Without Wrecking It), we took an honest look at where we’ve all been these last few years, where we’re going, and how to get there as safely as possible…or at least not completely crash and burn along the way! Check out more about this year’s keynotes, workshops, and other activities at www.collaborativeconference.org and learn about this year’s sponsors here – including companies like PennSERVE, who have products, services, and tools available to facilitate a smooth landing for all the planes your organization has in the air.
