On the eve of the Summit at Gettysburg, convening a diverse audience of servant leaders from across sectors, we had the honor to hear the soul stirring testimonies of those who have served our great country as part of our domestic and military service infrastructure. Some served in inner city America helping our children and youth realize their futures and others served our country protecting our freedoms. Despite where and how they served, one thing was clear, their service is tied to the historical legacy of the continuing journey to define and create one perfect union.
As the stories were told from the battle of Gettysburg to the formation of Global Health Corps, our unfinished business was clarified and revealed. Our collective journey to one America continues; and just as those who have served in our civilian military have continued the fight to protect our values and freedoms, another group of Americans are hearing the call to leverage their time and talents to address some of the most pressing domestic challenges our country is faciing.
From cleaning up our rivers and water sources to inspiring some of our best and brightest minds to teach in schools across the country; individuals from all walks of life are hearing the call of our shared destiny to make and sustain The United States of America as the shining light for freedom and opportunity for all who call her home.
Let the work continue and let us take bold steps to break down the barriers to opportunity for all to serve and realize our role in manifesting the dream of America as one perfect union.
Let's get it done!
