Roadpost #9: The 2010 Nevada National Service Awards Recipients
Every year, Nevada Volunteers, the state commission on national and community service, honors outstanding National Service volunteers in Nevada. These awards are given in observance of National AmeriCorps Week, which runs May 8th to 15th this year. All of these award winners are great examples of the promise of National Service programs. “We are very proud of them all,” said Shawn Lecker-Pomaville, CEO of Nevada Volunteers. “Their service makes Nevada a better place for all of us.” Nevada Volunteers is pleased to announce the following winners and share a little of their story:
Totally awesome. I volunteered for the Las Vegas concert on the 6th of March. There was a good deal of interest in Bon Jovi’s foundation as well as all the AmeriCorps/SeniorCorps programs. Plus it was fun afterward as we got to see the concert as well. It’s very cool that Bon Jovi is into volunteerism.
Hi, Rebekah! Thanks for commenting. It must have been a great concert!!! I know Bon Jovi has done some Public Service Announcements about volunteering which may air soon. Watch for them. He is a great person to get people inspired to serve.
