We are pleased to announce that the George & Barbara Bush Foundation, the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library & Museum, the Bush School of Government & Public Service, the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy, the Points of Light Foundation, and the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation will come together on a joint initiative — George & Barbara Bush Day of Service — to be held annually in June to commemorate the Bushes’ birthdays and celebrate their lifelong commitment to public service. Each legacy group — including their staff, volunteers, and friends — will honor President and Mrs. Bush in their own way through a day of volunteer service that will highlight the Bushes’ deep belief in education, literacy, volunteerism, leadership, character, diversity, and inclusion.

Background
The George & Barbara Bush Legacy Organizations are comprised of six Bush namesake groups: The George & Barbara Bush Foundation, the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library & Museum, the Bush School of Government & Public Service, the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy, the Points of Light Foundation, and the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation. These legacy organizations are committed to fostering the ideals and values that were driving forces in the lives of George & Barbara Bush. The Bushes left a “blueprint” on how to make a difference in the lives of all Americans through education, public service, literacy, volunteerism, and acts of character and inclusion.
