Dear Friend,

The Senate has passed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act 79-19!


The legislation will now be reconciled with the GIVE Act. Once settled, the largest expansion of Service programs in our lifetime will land on President Obama's desk, waiting for his signature. This is a truly historic occasion, and this victory would not have been possible without your calls and letters!


Thank you so much for all of your work urging Congress to pass this legislation.


We're going to send Congress a Thank You note, and we're inviting the supporters of this legislation to sign! Click here to add your name to the Thank You!


Yours,
Alan Khazei

******************************************

Please note this includes funding for AmeriCorps.org. I have two of these vouchers for my two wonderful years volunteering to teach in the inner city and work with Homeless Veterans. For nine years I have held the vouchers totaling 7k until which time I decided in what area to focus on. It is with these vouchers that the tuition for the Univ. of S.F. will be paid, I decided to add a Master's Certificate in Internet Marketing to my other degrees. It's the wave of the future. You or your children are eligible. Please avail yourselves to these opportunities. Good Luck!
