Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service: A Huge Success!

Serve Yavapai recently hosted the 5th Annual MLK Jr. Day of Service in Yavapai County!  Each year we partner with organizations across the county to lead the community in service opportunities that will honor Dr. King's legacy and commitment to transforming our nation through service to others.  This year we had over 300 volunteers give over 2,000 hours of service across the county.

Building Community Through Service!

The Yavapai County VISTA Project (YCVP), headquartered out of Youth Count and Prescott College, was created in 2006 out of the vision of a single AmeriCorps VISTA Member.

The Project’s mission is to help build and sustain the efforts of Yavapai County service providers and community members to continually improve the quality of life across the region. 

YCVP, supported by the Corporation for National and Community Service, provides full-time VISTA members to nonprofit, faith-based and other community organizations and public agencies to create and expand programs that ultimately bring low-income individuals and communities out of poverty.
