Community Calendar

The United We Serve initiative is President Obama's call to service for Americans to get hands on in tackling problems in their communities. While all of volunteer service is encouraged, the effort focuses on four key areas: education, health, energy and the environment, and community renewal.

The initiative culminates on September 11 in a National Day of Service and Remembrance. This will mark the first time the nation has observed 9/11 as a national day of service. The day will be marked by volunteer service, remembrance activities, and pledges to make service an ongoing commitment throughout the year.
