<DIV><FONT color=#000000>I just wanted to let you know that a new article has
been posted to the Community Service Blog. We are celebrating 20 years of
AmeriCorps by featuring the stories of Federationists who are AmeriCorps alums.
The first of these stories comes from Serena Cucco of New Jersey. Check out her
article and the rest of the blog at <A

your story, too, or if you have any other community service experiences you’d
like to contribute to the blog, please let me know at <A
