Everyone has experiences that matter in bettering our community. What could you do with yours?
Experience Matters connects your skills and talents with social-benefit organizations to enhance their capacity to solve community problems.
We offer year-long Fellowships, short-term Service by Design assignments, and AmeriCorps National Service programs. We are building a powerful network and creating sustainable outcomes for the betterment of the community.
Experience Matters was founded in February 2009 with 501(c)(3) status granted in September 2011. The organization became a program of the ASU Lodestar Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Innovation in 2022. Experience Matters has now impacted over 600 nonprofits, with more than 1,200 projects completed by matched volunteers.
