Is the National Day of Action on Your Calendar?

It’s not too late to get involved in a service project on the national Day of Action.  This Saturday, September 27th, is the national Day of Action.

Join thousands of Americans on that day participating in events that will demonstrate the power, potential and impact service can have.

I will be training and volunteering all weekend in North Carolina. Over 2600 events have already been registered with ServiceNation. Go to http://events.servicenation.org to discover events in your area.

My friend Henri Makembe from Be the Change sent me the following list of events planned for the Day Of Action as examples of what can be in store for you:

• In Miami, Florida, volunteers will rally to clean up the beaches of Pelican Harbor Island, a critical pelican rookery and habitat.
• In Salt Lake, Utah, volunteers will help the Community Food Co-op distribute food to more than 6,000 residents.
• In Topeka, Kansas, volunteers will spend the day reading to kids at the public library.

Show your support for community and volunteering. Give your time on Saturday to celebrating the national Day of Action.
