Christmas has passed, but homeless children need our help every day... "...Just as we should judge ourselves by how we care for our sick and elderly, we should judge ourselves by how we embrace and lift up the poorest among us. According to the National Center on Family Homelessness, 1.35 million children were homeless at some point this year; on any given night, at least 200,000 have no place to live." – Chris Bohjalian, Boston Globe, December 31, 2008

President-elect Obama started his career by serving Chicago communities struggling with tough economic times. He saw what could be achieved when ordinary people organized and worked together -- and that idea was at the core of this campaign.
You've seen the power people can have when they make a commitment to serving others.
Now, you can help launch this administration in the same spirit that got us here.
On Inauguration Day, President-elect Obama will call for a renewed commitment to national service to take on the challenges our country faces. You can help lead the way by joining your fellow supporters across the country.
