WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama will salute volunteer efforts by former President George H.W. Bush on Monday and launch a task force to expand national service, a White House official said.
At a White House event, Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will honor the 5,000th "Daily Point of Light" award recognizing a volunteer or nonprofit service providing organization. Bush, who will attend, established the award in 1989 as part of his efforts to recognize and promote volunteer work and will be at the event.
