Lasting Impacttestimonials
"My two terms of service with the KEYS Service Corps were perhaps the most challenging yet meaningful and influential experiences of my life. It is a direct result of my AmeriCorps service that I pursued a career in urban education, subsequently working as a special educator in New York City and Boston."

"In a group, I am typically more comfortable taking on a supportive role, but the service project showed me I can lead; it has helped solidify confidence in myself: to know that I too have the capacity to successfully lead others and accomplish amazing things is absolutely wonderful!"
