"On behalf of President Biden and the Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships, greetings to all who are participating in Love Our Cities events throughout the nation. Volunteerism is a hallmark of American society. Since the days of our nation’s founding, ordinary citizens have achieved extraordinary things through voluntary efforts. Programs like “Love Our Cities” touch thousands of lives and inspire Americans to serve and give back to their communities. Thank you for your dedication to the cities you reach."
