National Volunteer Week began in 1974 and this week was heralded in a proclamation by the White House and President Joe Biden.

U.S. President Joe Biden
“We are living in a moment that calls for hope and light and love — hope for our futures, light to see our way forward, and love for one another,” Biden’s proclamation read. “Volunteers provide all three. … This week, we recognize the enduring contributions of our Nation’s volunteers and encourage more Americans to join their ranks.”
