Sign Up to Renew America TogetherIn your neighborhood and in thousands of communities across the country, Americans are answering President-elect Obama's call to service.
Tomorrow, January 19th, our nation will come together in a shared spirit of community. And I wanted to make sure you know how to participate.
Monday is not only the eve of an inauguration that brings all of us so much hope, it's also Martin Luther King Jr. Day -- when we recognize the power of one man to bring about change by serving his country.
Help kick off an ongoing commitment to serve our communities by taking part in this extraordinary day of service.
Sign up to attend or host an event in your community and help rebuild America one neighborhood at a time.
The grassroots movement you helped build was always about more than an election. It's about bringing much needed change to Washington and our communities.
Barack is calling on us to help rebuild our country. He knows what can happen when ordinary people turn their hopes into real action.
Take the first step this Monday, January 19th, by joining a service event near you. Sign up now:
