AmeriCorps

ServeNebraska turns service into statewide impact. As Nebraska’s statewide volunteerism agency and administrator of AmeriCorps programs, ServeNebraska connects people, nonprofits, community organizations, and resources to address critical needs and strengthen communities across the state. Through AmeriCorps and statewide volunteer initiatives, ServeNebraska creates pathways for Nebraskans—and people from across the country—to put their skills, energy, and passion to work where they are needed most. Members and volunteers serve in communities throughout Nebraska, supporting education, health, food security, disaster response, economic opportunity, environmental stewardship, and other priorities that improve quality of life. Service is about more than filling immediate needs. ServeNebraska invests in the capacity and resilience of the nonprofit sector, helping organizations recruit, train, manage, and retain volunteers while developing the systems and partnerships needed to sustain long-term impact. By strengthening the organizations doing the work, ServeNebraska helps communities build lasting solutions—not just short-term results. The impact reaches far beyond individual service projects. AmeriCorps members gain valuable professional and leadership experience, nonprofits expand their ability to deliver programs, volunteers become more deeply connected to their communities, and Nebraskans benefit from stronger organizations and more responsive services. ServeNebraska is building a culture of service—one volunteer, one nonprofit, and one community at a time. Whether you are ready to serve, lead, or help strengthen the organizations creating change, there is a place for you in Nebraska’s statewide movement for good.
