DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Background
Office of the Secretary
In January of 2002, in his State of the
Union Address, President Bush called
on all Americans to dedicate 4,000
hours or two years of their lives to
volunteer service. He created the USA
Freedom Corps, a coordinating office at
the White House to oversee these efforts
and to bring increased attention to the
ways in which the Administration could
work together to enhance opportunities
for all Americans to serve their
neighbors and their nation. The
response has been positive. Last year,
64.5 million Americans volunteered, an
increase of more than 5 million since
2002.
