Who administers Volunteers for Prosperity?
The Office of Volunteers for Prosperity in the U.S. Agency for International Development coordinates with other relevant U.S. government agencies in seeking ways to expand and enhance volunteer service opportunities and will evaluate prospective grantees in part according to their ability and plans to use highly trained volunteers in carrying out their work. The Office reports to the White House office of USA Freedom Corps. Through the USA Freedom Corps, President Bush wants to help every American answer the call to volunteer service by strengthening and expanding service opportunities to protect our homeland, support our communities and extend American compassion around the world. Interested volunteers can find opportunities at home or abroad by contacting participating organizations in Volunteers for Prosperity.
