First Lady Michele Obama Kicks Off "United We Serve"

NIB is supporting "United We Serve" a summer of community-based volunteer service from June 22 to September 11, 2009. Listen to First Lady Michele Obama's comments about "United We Serve" and learn how to get involved. For more information, log on to http://www.serve.org.

NIB is encouraging all member agencies to participate in this wonderful volunteer program in any capacity that they can. Our goal is 100 percent participation!

Our focus is on providing reading mentors to children in local communities. Consider being a reading tutor at the library, schools or with neighborhood children.

Any kind of service or volunteer help you can do is worthwhile. Follow your heart and convictions.

You don't have to do this alone. Gather a group of friends or co-workers. Talk about a one-time event or plan something that will carry you through the next three months on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Share what you're doing with NIB through this blog or Twitter, http://twitter.com/nibabilityone.
