When I was in the 4th grade, Livin’ On A Prayer was my very favorite song. I wore out both my Slippery When Wet cassette tape and my acid wash jean jacket because of it.
Well, maybe it’s time to bust out the jean jacket again, because Jon Bon Jovi is partnering with the Corporation for National and Community Service to promote volunteerism across America.
Check out his new video at www.serve.gov
In tribute, some of us here at United Way of Metropolitan Chicago reworked a couple of Bon Jovi songs to celebrate community service (yes, we like to have fun here and no, we won’t quit our day jobs)
