USAgNet - 12/23/2020 Just over 20% of Americans who serve as volunteers nationwide share their expertise as members of boards or committees, according to AmeriCorps. This commitment to step up and serve helps shape the direction of organizations they care about, as Farm
Bureau volunteer leaders demonstrate year after year.
