This summer, 4,000 Jumpstart Corps Members will be joining the America Learns community. Jumpstart, one of the nation’s premier early childhood education and national service organizations, employs a research-based, cost-effective program that develops children’s language and literacy skills across eight states.
After piloting our AmeriCorps-compliant timesheet service in 2012-13, the organization has decided to invest in the service for 4,000 of its AmeriCorps and non-AmeriCorps Corps Members.
This relationship is especially exciting for us as both Jumpstart and our organization have shared roots — both organizations received early-stage funding from Echoing Green.
