President Obama’s birthday is tomorrow!

 

President Obama’s birthday is tomorrow, and I’ll be honest with you: He’s never really been one for fancy gifts or big shiny bows. It’s just not who he is. I’ll tell you what he does want. President Obama believes in matching generosity with purpose. And so the gift that would mean the most to him is support for the Obama Foundation and the important work we’re all doing together. Nothing would make his day more than knowing that folks around the country are joining together to do work that matters. Will you help make Barack’s birthday extra special by making a gift in his honor to support the Obama Foundation? SEND MY BIRTHDAY GIFT The Obama Foundation has continued building a movement of hope in the years since we left the White House. I’m so proud of that work, and how the entire team has remained true to a vision for this country that lifts up individuals and communities to be their best selves. That vision depends, and has always depended, on the contributions of countless people like you. President Obama has always been clear about that—the only way we create change is together. I hope you’ll chip in today to show him how committed you are. Your support will power work like the My Brother’s Keeper Alliance—one of the programs that is closest to Barack’s heart. He started the program because he believes that we have to do more to help boys and young men of color reach their full potential. That work has never been more urgent than it is right now. Black youth face systematic discrimination that limits their opportunities and threatens their lives. Every time we break down those walls, we help heal our communities. Every young leader who finds a mentor or a path forward through My Brother’s Keeper Alliance makes the light of hope glow a little brighter. That sounds like a pretty nice birthday gift to me, and you can help make it happen. Your gift for our mission will be so important, because it won’t just be a present to the President—it will have an impact for young leaders all across the country. We’ve got just a couple days left to make Barack’s birthday especially meaningful. Please, make your contribution today. Thank you for your continued support. Warmly, —Valerie Valerie Jarrett Chief Executive Officer The Obama Foundation MAKE A GIFT *If you’ve already made a donation in honor of President Obama’s birthday, thank you!
