Joining iParticipate.org in honoring Veterans today and tomorrow…

In my humble opinion, iParticipate.org has been doing an outstanding job of promoting its very important mission and inciting us all to consider volunteering to support members of the military who have done so much for us all through their military commitments. The above public service announcement (PSA) was released back in September, and I wanted to share it, and also include its transcript.

Every day, our brave troops and their families stand up for us.
For years, we’ve asked so much of so few.
Now we have a chance to serve these heroes.
To give time, offer comfort, or lend a hand.
To ease the burden on a military family.
Let’s honor their service by volunteering ours.

The underlying supporter of iParticipate.org, the Entertainment Industry Foundation, has mobilized the entertainment community around this groundbreaking initiative, which is designed to inspire a new era of service and volunteerism. The multi-year iParticipate campaign aims to make service a part of who we are as Americans, and show what we can achieve when we all pull together.

As a centerpiece for this initiative, EIF has enlisted major broadcast networks including, ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC, for an unprecedented, week-long television event beginning Monday, October 19. Beginning on that date, viewers are invited to tune into seven days and nights of television and watch how your favorite TV shows and personalities shine a light on the power of community service.

As shown above, EIF also continues producing and releasing new PSAs to reinforce the importance of volunteerism. Through these PSAs, EIF will also recognize and encourage support for five key areas of service: Education & Children, Health & Well Being, Economic Development, Environmental Conservation, and Support for Military Families.
