National Volunteer Week, 2025

Proclamation 10923 of April 23, 2025

National Volunteer Week, 2025

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

Every day, countless volunteers strengthen and enrich
communities across the country through their selfless
service. This National Volunteer Week, we offer our
gratitude to every individual who generously volunteers
their time, talent, and resources to influence and
impact the lives of their neighbors, their communities,
and the Nation as a whole.

Volunteerism is central to the American way of life,
exemplifying the spirit that makes America great. In
soup kitchens, shelters, schools, hospitals, and
religious organizations across the country, volunteers
encompass a spirit of kindness and compassion to help
those in need. These exemplary citizens are role models
for their communities and inspire us all with their
commitment to selfless service.

During National Volunteer Week, we pay tribute to every
American who gives their time and talents in service to
our Nation. We celebrate their selfless spirit--the
driving force that inspires them to uplift others and
serve a purpose greater than their own. In times of
need, the American people emerge stronger than ever.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim April 20 through
April 26, 2025, as National Volunteer Week. I call upon
all Americans to observe this week by volunteering in
service projects across our country and pledging to
make service a part of their daily lives.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
twenty-third day of April, in the year of our Lord two
thousand twenty-five, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two hundred and forty-
ninth.
