Wait, wait... Don't tell me...

First Lady Michelle Obama wants me to complete community service hours.

...Yeah, she does. BUT, she's not the only one. President Obama wants you to do it too. AND, it's not just a thing Democrats want you to do. For all of the Republicans, President George H.W. Bush wants you to do it too.

On Friday, October 16, Presidents Obama and Bush came together at the Points of Light Institute Presidential Forum at Texas A&M University to highlight the importance of community service. (Click here to view the speeches.)

So, what's your point?

The importance of community service goes beyond party lines and commencement speakers. Community service is important because it impacts lives.

You have the perfect opportunity to make an impact this weekend.

The RAC has organized a grocery delivery event with We Are Family this Saturday, October 24, from 10 am- 1 pm, and they need your help. The event will be focused on senior citizens in Columbia Heights. Please email Melissa or Maura if you are interested.

DON'T FORGET!

Gallery Night is tomorrow (Tuesday, October 20) at 8 pm in the Community Room. Stop by for hors d'oeuvres and to view DC photography, courtesy of your fellow students.
