AmeriCORPS MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

	Anthony F. Geraci City Year Columbus 2nd Year AmeriCorps Member

There were many instances and moments during my college career that led me to City Year Columbus. Most of my time spent at The Ohio State University was devoted to service. I was a board member of Habitat for Humanity at OSU where I not only worked in the Columbus area, but also building houses in Santa Rosa de Copan, Honduras. I realized during my last years at OSU, that my life would have to take a path in the Non-Profit arena in some way or another. City Year was finally an avenue I could venture into that encompassed my passion for Non-Profit work, the belief that youth can change the world, and my commitment to service all in one.
