COVID-19 may have disrupted daily life nationally, and globablly, but it hasn't stopped our AmeriCorps members from getting things done.
The Appalachian Forest Heritage Area Inc. (AFNHA), is seeking a qualifications package and expressions of interest from Architectural firms to provide design and other pre-development services for the Darden Mill Redevelopment Project located at 101 Railroad Avenue in Elkins, WV.
We are extremely saddened by the termination of several other AmeriCorps programs in West Virginia and many more nationwide. These losses of funding have affected many partner organizations within our region. While our own AmeriCorps program has been unaffected and AFNHA remains fully operational, we mourn these losses and expect serious consequences for our communities.
AmeriCorps members serving with Appalachian Forest National Heritage Area (AFNHA) recently presented a donation to the Augusta Heritage Center to support their scholarship fund. AmeriCorps members raised funds for this project by organizing a square dance. This was one of several organizations supported by AFNHA AmeriCorps members through their annual community service projects.
