Service Projects
Superior AmeriCorps members take place in three major service projects each year.
Make A Difference Day LogoMake A Difference Day
Each year on the last Saturday in October, Superior AmeriCorps members take part in a Make A Difference Day service project. Make A Difference Day is a national effort sponsored by USA Weekend Magazine to encourage community service. While the individual project changes from year to year, one thing remains constant: the commitment to improving the local community. Past efforts include painting an elementary school kitchen, walking animals, enhancing a Halloween party for the elderly, preparing local school nature trails and making improvements to playgrounds. For more information on this year’s project, please  contact us.
Martin Luther King Jr. DayMartin Luther King Jr. Day of Service
Every January, Superior AmeriCorps members coordinate and implement a service project in honor of Martin Luther King Jr., one of America’s most important civil rights leaders. The focus of these projects changes each year, but every project is intended to improve the local community. Past projects have included holding an essay and poster contest for youth, visiting the elderly and creating a mural with youth. For more information on this year’s project, or to volunteer, please contact us.
Alcohol Awareness Month
The signature service project of Superior AmeriCorps, Alcohol Awareness Month, takes place each year in April. This month-long event, seeks to prevent local underage drinking through educational and alternative activities including speeches, dances, movie nights, sports tournaments, safe nights and essay contests.
