Spread the Word and Make Your Voice Heard

Thank you for your partnership and support of Aspire! We’ve put together this toolkit with resources you can use to advocate for Aspire and speak out in support of AmeriCorps and out-of-school time programs.

If you have questions, please contact Aspire’s Communications and Development Manager, Maggie McCoy, at maggie@aspireafterschool.org. 

For media/press inquiries, please contact Aspire’s Executive Director, Paula Fynboh, at paula@aspireafterschool.org or 202-813-2140.

Email your representatives:

You can also email your Members of Congress and urge them to sustain funding for afterschool and summer programs using Afterschool Alliance’s email tool with questions.
