As we step into the warm embrace of summer, a meaningful and transformative opportunity awaits.

Whether you're a college student seeking practical experience, a recent graduate desiring to kickstart your career purposefully, or a gap-year student wanting to contribute positively to the world, this unique summer job with the Silver City Gospel Mission could be your perfect match.

The Silver City Gospel Mission, partnering with Hunger Free America, is embarking on an ambitious mission this summer that strives to combat food insecurity and simultaneously empower young minds.

We're seeking passionate and dedicated individuals like you to join our team as Summer Associate VISTAS. This ten-week full-time role is not your average summer job. Instead, it's an immersive journey that plunges you into the heart of hunger-alleviation initiatives, allowing you to learn, grow, and contribute meaningfully.
Whether you're involved in nurturing our community garden, bolstering our food pantries, or supporting other projects, every day presents a new opportunity to make a difference. Your summer with us will be enriching in more ways than one.

Aside from a rewarding living stipend, you also stand to receive an AmeriCorps Education or Cash Award. Additionally, you'll gain professional development training that enhances your skills and prepares you for your future career.

Whether you're a college student looking to supplement your academic learning, a recent graduate seeking real-world experience, or a gap-year student exploring different career paths, this program presents a unique learning curve.

What we value most in our Summer Associate VISTAS is a passion for anti-hunger work, a team-oriented mindset, and an appreciation for diversity. And while being over 18 years old is required, other part-time employment or educational programs during your term is ok with us.

This flexibility ensures you can balance other commitments while fully engaging in our program. Imagine being part of a mission that matters, gaining hands-on experience in the non-profit sector, and being the change you wish to see in your community. Your summer job doesn't just have to be a temporary stint - it can be a stepping-stone towards a fulfilling career and a more socially conscious life.

There's no time to waste with the application deadline on May 26th. Don't let this summer slip by uneventfully. Grab this chance to make a real difference - apply now at the Silver City Gospel Mission or online at https://silvercitygospelmission.org/apply-now/.

The Silver City Gospel Mission is located at 111 S. Texas St., downtown Silver City, right behind Jalisco's Restaurant. For any questions or guidance, please get in touch with Randy at the Silver City Gospel Mission between 10 am and 3 pm or call us at 575-388-5041.

Don't just spend your summer; make it count. With the Silver City Gospel Mission, you can turn these sunny days into a transformative journey toward a brighter future. Leap and join us as we strive to create a more food-secure world.

To all our cherished donors and loyal email subscribers, I cannot emphasize enough how truly grateful we are for your unwavering support. It is because of your heartfelt contributions and ongoing commitment that our soup kitchen, food pantries, and clothing bank are able to operate and fulfill their mission.

Your generosity and dedication empower us to make a tangible difference in the lives of those less fortunate. Without you, none of this would be possible, and we deeply appreciate the impact you have on our organization and the communities we serve.
