Save Service on February 25th!

Copied from www.SaveService.org

The United States Congress is considering a bill which would eliminate funding for the Corporation for National and Community Service, denying local organizations and millions of Americans the resources needed to strengthen their communities. If passed, your local community will lose the important support of organizations like Teach For America, Foster Grandparents, City Year, Senior Companions, Habitat for Humanity, Retired Senior Volunteer Program, YouthBuild and many others.

Our entire strategy to fight and win depends on unprecedented levels of community engagement. Without local support in large and visible demonstrations, we are unlikely to survive these attacks. As Tip O'Neil said, "All politics is local."

Sign up today to save service in your community by joining our "Save Service District Day" on Friday, February 25th. Join your neighbors in a visit to your local congressional district office and tell your Member of Congress to protect service. Our local communities cannot afford to lose the critical support these organizations provide.
