FY 2025 AmeriCorps Formula Guidance

Deadline: Submissions are due via eGrants by 5pm (EST) on March 28, 2025. Support documents are also due by this deadline via Blackbaud Grantmaking.

Each year, approximately 200,000 Americans meet critical community needs through service in AmeriCorps nationwide. With funding from AmeriCorps that is administered by Volunteer Florida, AmeriCorps members in Florida dedicate a term of intensive service and receive workforce development training, living stipend, education award and professional development.

AmeriCorps programs address critical community needs including education, economic opportunity, conservation and natural resources, healthy futures and veterans and military families. Sample activities include tutoring and mentoring youth, restoring natural habitats and job training/placement. Priority consideration should be given when projects demonstrate support for the state’s economic competitiveness and workforce development, prioritize Florida’s environment and natural resources, and/or preserve the quality of life and connectedness of the state’s communities, including the movement of people and goods.
