HarvestCorps is Making a Difference

Many of you are familiar with the Ohio Association of Second Harvest Foodbanks' national service programs. If you are a counselor you may have been trained by an Americorps VISTA Community Trainer. Or perhaps your food pantry participated in the recent Hunger Study staffed by several Americorps members. OASHF currently manages a 74 member VISTA project, a 30 member Americorps State program, and a 100 member VISTA Summer Associate program.

Click here to view the Program Year 2009-2010 HarvestCorps report. If you are interested in hosting a national service member at your agency contact Rachel Diskin, rdiskin@oashf.org - VISTA, or Harmony Cox, harmony@oashf.org - State.
