Volunteer CalendarToday we transferred our blog from our old blogspot (cofcvolunteer.blogspot.com) to our new CofC blog domain! As you can probably tell, not everything is transferred and up to date yet. Please be patient with us while we make everything look professional, and while we transfer over some of the functions and tools we had on our old site.
-The Civic Engagement Team.
In case you missed it, President Obama announced plans for a Summer of Service (video after the jump).
From Serve.gov:
“‘United We Serve’ is a nationwide service initiative that will help meet growing social needs resulting from the economic downturn. 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.”
