We have traveled a successful arc that took us to this point but “now what?” Do we ride the curve back down as we let what we built disassemble or do we take this opportunity to redefine ourselves and begin a new trajectory upward? The choice is ours but the time is now.
President Obama is calling on us -- his grassroots supporters -- to participate in a national day of service on January 19th, 2009. The California team is asking that we keep our geographical organization in place and get these community service projects pulled together at the neighborhood level.
I am asking each of you to challenge your team to develop (or participate in) a community service project for January 19th.
The Obama team wants to vet the project ideas by January 2nd; so, please reach out as soon as possible (I understand that it is the holidays and it may make things a little more difficult) and let me know, by team, and area what your plan is.
It doesn’t have to be a monumental project but it does need to make a difference in your community. We are “community organizers”, are we not?
Yes we can!
