Meet Adriana.
_ Adriana
Lopez joined
AmeriCorps to learn more about working in the non-profit sector and to give
back to her own Denver
community. Through her term of service
with Mile High Youth Corps, Adriana has developed a greater understanding of
the needs that face our region – especially the need to conserve our state's
natural resources. While Adriana didn’t
need to travel far to serve with MHYC, much of her experience with the Corps
was seen through travel in one of our 12-passenger vans.
The vans allowed me to experience some of the wonderful places that MHYC has taken us to, including the beautiful mountain parks we worked to repair for all Colorado citizens and visitors this past summer. The 12-passenger vans play a vital role in the work we do at MHYC - from service projects to servicing client homes and repairing trails, we would not be to get things done without transportation! Adriana will graduate from the Corps this December. She plans to return to the communications sector and pursue a Master's Degree in International and Intercultural Communication. Help MHYC get to work throughout the 15 counties we serve along the Front Range by making a donation today! Learn more about Colorado Gives Day.
