Volunteers supported by the ACTION agency uphold a cherished American tradition, our belief in the ability of the individual to make a difference. The vast achievement of volunteers demonstrates that ours is truly a government of, by and for the people.
In recent years, our ACTION programs have been able to expand their service, thanks largely to the tremendous support that they have gained locally from citizens who share a commitment to improving their communities.
As President Bush has said many times, “any definition of a successful life must include serving others.” All of us know of such “success stories” in our own communities. During National Volunteer Week, please join me in taking time to say thank you to your local volunteers. They are a vital part of what makes America the greatest nation on earth.
