Tourism Cares for America Volunteer Day

Tourism Cares is making a difference – again! In commemoration of President Obama’s signing of the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, naming September 11 as a day of service and remembrance, on Friday, September 10th, 2010, Tourism Cares will hold its

Tourism Cares for America Volunteer Day, on the National Mall and Memorial Parks in Washington, DC.

Tourism Cares is inviting its travel and tourism industry volunteers to bring their families and friends to help brighten up our nation’s capital. The National Park Service needs help, and who better to come to its aid once again than the friends and supporters of Tourism Cares?

The project involves a few hours of volunteering to help do needed painting projects around the World War II Memorial, the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial and Lafayette Park. These often-visited historic sites are important to every American, and the beautification of their surroundings is important work. I hope you can join in and help. Click here to learn more about volunteering for this project.
