AmeriCorps St. Louis Revenue and Competitors

Since 1994, inspired people from across America have brought to St. Louis their enthusiasm, their talents and a commitment to serve their country. AmeriCorps St. Louis has distinguished itself as one of the leading AmeriCorps programs in the nation through a long and impressive history. Each year the program recruits nearly 40 Members to serve as part of our Emergency Response Team. In all, AmeriCorps St. Louis Members have committed more than three million hours of service - getting things done for St. Louis and the nation. The impact of AmeriCorps St. Louis on the region, on its Members, and on those who benefit from its services, is profound. Our region's natural habitats are preserved for future generations by the Emergency Response Team. Communities, neighborhoods and agencies are organized into new collaborations to provide more effective disaster preparedness programs. Families in their darkest hours are given relief after a disaster strikes. For those who serve as AmeriCorps Members, the desire to give back does not end after one year. Former members are significantly more likely to enter careers in public service, many devoting their lives to disaster response, military service, natural resource conservation, or social work. The St. Louis region benefits from the many alums of our program that remain in the area, revitalizing the city through their commitment to the community and its residents.
