ServiceNation

The ServiceNation campaign kicked off with a Summit in New York City on September 11th. This grassroots national movement aims to enrol increasing numbers of Americans in committing a year of their lives to national service and, by 2020, to engage 100 million citizens (up from 61 million today) in volunteering each year in schools, workplaces and community organizations. The movement launches tomorrow with a National Day of Action, involving over 2,500 events in 50 states. Citizens are invited to pledge themselves to the ideals of service by signing the Declaration of Service
