Volunteer Florida

A program of the Corporation for National & Community Service.

United We Serve is a national service movement, from June 22 to September 11, founded upon the ideal that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things when given the proper tools. President Obama is asking you to participate in the United We Serve movement and make an initial service commitment to your community by addressing the needs in education, health, energy, the environment, safety and security.

Although the movement lasts only 81 days, it is intended to set the country in motion towards a renewal of our commitment to service. United We Serve will lay the foundation for a sustained, collaborative, and focused effort to promote service as a way of life for all Americans and help meet growing social needs resulting from the economic downturn.
United We Serve has designated the following themes that target priority issue areas.

July 20 Community Renewal
July 27 Education
Aug 03 Energy & Environment
Aug 10 Health
Aug 24 Safety & Security
Aug 31 Interfaith Service

A program of the Corporation for National & Community Service.

This summer, President Obama is calling on all of us – young and old, from every background, all across this country – to participate in our nation’s recovery and renewal by serving in our communities. From June 22 to September 11, "United We Serve" will begin to engage Americans from coast to coast in addressing community needs in education, health care, energy independence, economic renewal, and other issues. With the knowledge that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things when given the proper tools, President Obama is asking us to come together to help lay a new foundation for growth. This initiative aims to both expand the impact of existing organizations by engaging new volunteers in their work and encourage volunteers to develop their own "do-it-yourself" projects. "United We Serve" is an initial 81 days of service but will grow into a sustained, collaborative and focused effort to promote service as a way of life for all Americans.
