Obama Youth Jobs Corps

It was great speaking with Imani and Austin, two outstanding @UrbanAlliance Obama Youth Jobs Corps students. They’re proof that when we connect young people with training and meaningful work experience, it benefits our communities and the world. pic.twitter.com/6hXjZNsSXx

44 Hours With The Obamas

It was wonderful meeting with so many remarkable young people while we were back in Chicago last week. Hearing their stories reminded me so much of my own. They give me so much hope, and I can’t wait to see the impact they’ll have on this community. pic.twitter.com/rGYoM590oG

I had so much fun with these bright young people from Hyde Park Academy! I loved hearing about their ideas, passions, and resilience. My message to them—and to every young person out there—is to keep learning and never give up on your dreams. Barack and I believe in you! pic.twitter.com/hdTIrEodRt

COVID-19 Community Corps

It was great speaking with @Surgeon_General Murthy and the COVID-19 Community Corps volunteers across the country who've been spending their time and energy encouraging their communities to get vaccinated. Their work is making a difference and will help us end this pandemic. https://t.co/t4yoLaibrU

Thank you @BarackObama for joining this week’s COVID-19 Community Corps call to honor the work our Corps members have done — not only to protect our nation from #COVID19, but to remind us that we can all be powerful sources of healing for one another. pic.twitter.com/vSYk6aBEnV

Inspiring Stories

As part of our celebrations for President Obama's birthday, you helped us give him the best gift: Your story. We asked you to share how you’ve spent 60 minutes—or even 60 seconds—giving back to your communities—and you didn’t disappoint.

Check out some of the inspiring stories:

Supporting Mothers

I love these #MothersDay cards drawn by students in the @GirlsAlliance community. Send one to your mom to thank her for supporting you—and if you can, donate to girls' education projects in her honor through the Girls Opportunity Alliance Fund. https://t.co/DqrrJE7GWh pic.twitter.com/YVLouTJ6zV

Happy Mother’s Day to @MichelleObama and all the moms celebrating today. I hope you take a moment to thank the women who love you in that special way that mothers do, and remember those who are no longer with us. pic.twitter.com/Uky8xMqHRl

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 9, 2021

I hope you take today to let all the mother figures in your life know how much you love them. I know I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for my mom. She's always been that guiding light in my life. Wishing her and all the moms out there a wonderful #MothersDay! 💖 pic.twitter.com/Qa1ePhSpOE
