MNA 2017 - Carson City-Crystal Schools
 
 
 
As a VISTA with Carson City-Crystal Schools, you’ll promote service learning in the whole district, encourage membership in the high school’s Student Leadership Team, and build the relationship between CCCS, the Montcalm County Teen Center, and the community at-large. In a rural community, what happens to children at school has a great impact on their lives. Service learning helps them expand their worldview and gives them the chance to connect to the world outside of their community. You’ll have a chance to impact the lives of these children more than you could ever know. 26.9% of children in Montcalm County are living in poverty, and the school district numbers reflect that; at least 40% of children in the schools receive free or reduced lunch. However, the VISTA has been an integral part in making sure the district sees a 90% graduation rate and will continue to be so this year. 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.
