MNA 2017 - Lenawee Community Foundation
 
 
 
As a VISTA with the Lenawee Community Foundation, you’ll help kids realize that education is for everyone, while helping reach the Lumina Foundation goal of 60% postsecondary education by 2025. There is a lack of resources for rural students to learn about careers they could pursue. As the VISTA, you’ll arrange college visits, promote college access, and collaborate with individuals and organizations to make going to college an integral part of this community. 65% of 2014 Lenawee graduates were enrolled in postsecondary institutions the fall following their senior year. However, 78% of middle school students aspired to attend college. The middle school population is coming of age, and the VISTA will be key in making sure the aspirational percentage becomes the actual percentage. Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) is a statewide nonprofit organization that serves its nonprofit members to advance their missions. MNA's vision is that Michigan's nonprofit sector be a vital leader in building and sustaining thriving communities, and MNA believes that active, engaged volunteers are imperative.
