Building Capacity
For the last several years, Friends of the MK Nature Center have sponsored an AmeriCorp member position. This support provides increased capacity for MK Nature Center staff through a dedicated volunteer member. Members serve in a variety of ways such as education programming, community outreach and on-site support.
AmeriCorps members donate 1700 hours per year to meet the minimum qualifications to finish the program. They receive a small monthly stipend and an education award at the end of their service. Being an AmeriCorps member is a big commitment, one that requires sacrifice and dedication.
