The Obama campaign today announced that Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, will kick off the Democratic National Convention’s Delegate Service Day, assembling care packages for troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. As co-chair of the Democratic National Convention’s Delegate Service Day, Michelle Obama, along with co-chair and Colorado First Lady Jeannie Ritter, will aim to unite and inspire citizens to take responsibility and pride in a renewed commitment to service and America’s future.
Building on Senator and Mrs. Obama’s lifelong commitment to public service, and the Democratic Party’s efforts to encourage public service, delegates from across the country will participate in service day on Wednesday, completing projects in and around Denver.
Mrs. Obama will also be joined by her family and friends, including her mother Marian Robinson and her two daughters, Malia and Sasha Obama.
This service project kicks off a day of activities in which Democrats from across the country will participate. This project, part of the DNCC’s Delegate Service Day Initiative, will be in gratitude to the city of Denver which is hosting the delegates this week.
