| President Barack
Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama have announced a nationwide
service initiative, United We Serve, spanning 81
days, culminating with a National Day of Service and Remembrance
on September 11. These 81 days will be the beginning of a sustained,
collaborative, and focused effort to meet community needs and make
service a way of life for all Americans.
Hands On Central
Texas & United Way Capital Area; in partnership with OneStar
Foundation, UT Volunteer & Service Learning Center, Keep Austin
Beautiful, Communities in Schools of Central Texas, College Forward,
UCP Texas & Texas Campus Compact; are answering the President’s
call to service with United We Serve - Austin! You can answer the
call too. Sign up for volunteer projects/opportunities, organize
and lead projects in your neighborhood, attend one of our innovation
workshops or engage your networks in creating change. In these tough
economic times, we’re facing increasing demands for services,
and now more than ever we need volunteers to help fill this growing
need. We are pleased to participate in United We Serve and thank
the President for making this call to service this summer and beyond.
