After being selected to participate in the NYC Civic Corps (an AmeriCorps program managed by NYC Service and the Mayor's Office). I was placed at NYCCAH where I have worked to create a skills-based volunteer program, as part of the Reducing Hunger Volunteer Impact Initiative (RHVII). The RHVII is an initiative made up of 16 city agencies and community-based organizations working together to help reduce food insecurity in New York City. The skills-based volunteer program surveys and assesses the organizational needs of emergency food programs (EFPs): e.g., soup kitchens and food pantries. Then finds and recruits volunteer pro bono professionals to work with the EFP to address their needs in areas such as technology, database management, legal and translation services, to name a few. All in the effort to increase the EFP's capacity to better serve their clients and community. Also organized educational workshops to help large numbers of EFPs in some of the greatest needs areas such as grant writing, fund raising, and volunteer management.
