Here’s a Tweet from President Obama’s Twitter page from August 3, 2011:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"BarackObama Barack Obama
This morning, the President’s Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge kicks off at the White House. Watch live: wh.gov/live
6 hours ago"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I went to the website for the President’s Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge. It looks as if there’s video for it, which I can’t listen to at the moment. The place where the viewer is supposed to click to play the video is right over the President’s nose, as that symbol is often placed to indicate more of the “I smell a bad smell” harassment.
To the right is something that has a picture of Mrs. Obama, who has the same symbol over the middle of her face. There’s a caption next to her that says “United We Serve.”
“United We Serve” has a website of its own, called “Serve.gov,” that’s advertised for above the picture of Mrs. Obama.
Like many websites, “Serve.gov” has revolving pictures and captions. Here’s the description for the title “September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance”:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“This year, more than 1 million Americans are expected to serve in their communities in honor of 9/11. Service projects will range from food drives to neighborhood cleanups and disaster preparation activities.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are also pictures and captions about the military and about projects regarding child fitness and nutrition. I'm sure that there's more on the website than that; this is another time when I don't have a lot of time and ended up doing more research than I planned to do.
The Google search result for the search term “serve.gov” says that “serve.gov” is managed by the Corporation for National and Community Service. Here's that search result:

I went to the website for the Corporation for National and Community Service. It’s involved in the harassment.
It also has a section from August 1, 2011 called “Food, Fun, and Sun! Summer Food Service Program Story and Photo Contest.” It says it originally appeared on the USDA blog on July 20, 2011.

"Food, Fun, and Sun! Summer Food Service Program Story and Photo Contest
Healthy Foods

This post originally appeared on the USDA blog on July 20, 2011.
Summer is in full swing, and it's time for some healthy competition! Around the country, local organizations from churches to community centers are busy serving meals to kids through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), a federally-funded program that provides free, nutritious meals and snacks to help children in low-income areas get the nutrition they need throughout the summer months when school is not in session.
Although thousands of organizations operate this program, each site has different ideas about activities, volunteer recruiting, and outreach in both rural and urban settings to make sure no child goes hungry in the summer.
To help capture and share some of the creative and successful ways sites are managing the program, FNS is sponsoring “Food, Fun and Sun! The Summer Food Service Program Story and Photo Contest” and looking for best practices that fit into four targeted categories. Winning entries will help us spread the word about programs that break down barriers with innovative methods.
Current SFSP Sponsors and Sites are eligible to enter. We're looking for examples of successful programs that fit into a few targeted categories:
Contest submissions should be in the form of a 200-400 word narrative (your story) accompanied by two photos. Finalists will be posted on the contest website where a public vote will determine Winners and Honorable Mentions. Winners will be honored and recognized in a variety of ways on a national stage.
Food, Fun and Sun! The Summer Food Service Program Story and Photo Contest starts today and submissions will be accepted through August 20, 2011.
For contest rules, details, and to submit your entry,visit our Challenge page.
Good luck, and may the best programs win!
