United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley hosted an AmeriCorps End of Year Celebration on Thursday, June 27. The AmeriCorps members were presented with congressional recognition awards from special guest Selina Winchester from Congresswoman Susan Wild’s office. Members also prepared and presented videos showcasing their work over the past year. In their videos, they shared why they became an AmeriCorps member, their commitment to giving back to their community, their dedication to furthering the missions of nonprofits they’re passionate about, building relationships, having authentic experiences and providing real and lasting solutions that make a difference.

Your United Way is proud to have 19 AmeriCorps members serve at 19 sites for the 2023-2024 grant year working closely with staff in the United Way office, school districts and nonprofits throughout the Greater Lehigh Valley.
