Reagan on America

“The spirit of neighbor helping neighbor flows like a deep and mighty river through the history of our Nation.”

December 3, 1984

“The spirit of neighbor helping neighbor flows like a deep and mighty river through the history of our Nation. We are proud of our strong and uniquely American tradition of voluntarism. Compassion, vision, and a fundamental sense of decency are the hallmarks of our national character and are reflected in the charitable works of our citizens.”
