- Points of Light to unveil new strategy that it hopes will ignite a volunteerism boom
Points of Light, founded by President George H.W. Bush, is unveiling a $100 million National Volunteer Strategy to double U.S. volunteers to 150 million by 2035. The initiative aims to address volunteer shortages exacerbated by pandemic-related declines and cuts to AmeriCorps in 2025, with support from partners like The UPS Foundation.
