United Way of Central Louisiana is excited to say that this summer’s Summer of Service program is funded by a Youth Volunteer Summer Service Grant from The Rapides Foundation. As part of the grant, we are implementing the Youth Volunteer Corps model to engage youth in team-based service experiences that build life and work skills while inspiring a lifetime ethic of service. Also, we are excited to grow and support our partnerships with Louisiana Christian University and the Alexandria Housing Authority.
