OneStar: Strategies to Achieve Social Impact

Service and Volunteerism

The ultimate success of our nonprofit organizations often rests on the volunteers that serve on the front lines and help these groups fulfill their missions.  Volunteers' enthusiasm, expertise and desire to serve are the most basic component of a successful nonprofit sector. OneStar's Service and Volunteerism focus area is cultivating a strong volunteer ethic across the state with AmeriCorps*Texas and our three-year, $45 million investment in our state's volunteer industry.
