SERVE.GOV

On April 21, 2009, My mom called me so excited.  She told me that President Obama signed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act.  I had no idea what she was talking about.  She explained it to me and couldn't be happier.  

"During a time of almost unprecedented challenges it is critical that we all work together, the government alone cannot fix everything.  Working together in a sustained, collaborative effort, we can harness our greatest resource, our people, and change the course of history.
