"Change" - Obamas USAService.org Day of Service

Capture the unique spirit of Obama's Day of Service in 2.5 minutes. That was the challenge. It was MLK day, the day before the inauguration. Take a look. The feeling of the day was amazing. Hopefully the first of many. Visit usaservice.org and volunteer. It was a great way to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. A great first day of service. Hopefully well have a new era of volunteering. USAService.org put the whole thing together - 1 million volunteers - in one week. Michelle Obama put out a video about it less than a week before.

This is great. I didn't know about the day of service but will volunteer this year.

Such a poignant moment. Meeting each other in ongoing community service can't help but unite Americans as our heads spin from whatever we witness in Washington, D.C. Thank you.

Loved the lady who states "Community reflects what we put into it". So true. Instead of awaiting politicians, governments, and organized groups to fix the world's communities, we need to look inward and decide what we are putting (or are not) putting into it. Realizing that it will not happen overnight is so important but every journey begins with one small step. If we can all make that step, we can accomplish incredible things together....and change the world for the better.

Very inspirational. Made me feel a sense of community, a reconnection with people beyond my daily existance.
