June 2025

Our Message

1. AmeriCorps is a national service program that provides Americans opportunities to serve their country, improve lives, and help communities within the United States. AmeriCorps is a federal agency and receives funding from the federal government.

2. The Trump administration has eliminated almost $400 million of the funding of an almost 1 billion dollar budget. Thousands of AmeriCorps workers have had to stop working or have been fired. Many projects have been terminated or greatly reduced.

3. Many communities rely on the help of AmeriCorps for a variety of projects. Many of these same communities will also feel the financial pinch of the loss of AmeriCorps funding.

Give Support

SammySocks Etc. will donate 20% of all sales during the month of June 2025 to AmeriCorps. 20% of your purchase will go toward helping provide AmeriCorps with the funding needed to provide assistance with natural disaster response, tackling poverty issues, and improving health for communities across the United States.

Take Action

1. Donate directly to AmeriCorps.

2. Volunteer at your local organizations that serve as partners with AmeriCorps.

3. Contact (visit, call, email, text, and/or write letters) your local officials in your city, county, state, and federal government. Let them know that they need to step up and support AmeriCorps. You can find who your elected officials are at this website: https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials.

4. Specifically contact your federal elected officials (congressmen or congresswomen and senators) to let them know that you do not support the cuts to this federal program that helps communities all across our country.
