Nevada Volunteers is an excellent example of the power that is generated when government and the private sector combine forces.  Through the funding that Nevada Volunteers receives from the Corporation for National and Community Service, we leverage $19.00 dollars for every $1.00 provided to us from state funds.  With those dollars, we garner additional support from private businesses and nonprofits statewide to provide AmeriCorps programs that meet needs in local communities and we provide support and recognition to business, nonprofit, and governmental agencies that promote volunteerism as a way of giving back to our communities.
