[Community-service] Fwd: AmeriCorps Disability Mentoring Day Mini Grants

[Nallym Bravo]

Good morning everyone,
Just passing along this information. I would guess that this initiative is available in most states. I was thinking that this would be a great way to get some of our affiliates involved. Good luck, and have a wonderful day. 
Best,
Nallym Bravo
