President Obama has called on all of us to help support our local communities through service and here's an opportunity for you to get together with some of your former Obama Campaign HQ call/correspondence center colleagues and help our city.

Organizing for America is inviting you to join in service at the 16th Annual Chicago Cares Serve-a-thon on Saturday, June 13. We are among the 8,000 volunteers who have committed to making Chicago a better place by painting, planting, building and beautifying schools across the city.

Together, Serve-a-thon volunteers will help 30,000 Chicago students succeed by transforming their schools into vibrant places to learn and grow. Volunteering is always more fun when we do it together, and as Team Captains, we are trying to recruit as many former campaign colleagues as we can to assist in this effort.

Please join one of our teams today and volunteer to make Chicago a better place!

The registration deadline is Monday, June 8 (or whenever the event reaches capacity) so visit www.chicagocares.org to register today. Be sure to select "Join a Team" and search for one of our teams when you do so:

Organizing for America1 (Team Captain, Kathy Gallo)

Organizing for America2 (Team Captain, Susan Gottlieb)

Organizing for America3 (Team Captain, Janet Taylor)

Organizing for America4 (Team Captain, Caryl Steinberg)

Here is some additional information:

There is a $30 fee per participant.

Participants must be 12 years old on June 13, 2009, and until age 17 they must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

If you have any questions, please contact one of us or visit www.chicagocares.org.

We hope to see you on June 13.
