OAKLAND -- President Bill Clinton and his daughter, Chelsea, led students Sunday in a community project aimed to spruce up a campus that is home to five schools.

The two appeared along with Oakland Mayor Libby Schaff for a "Day of Action" that the Clinton Global Academy hosted along with the Oakland Unified School District and the Oakland Public Education Fund. The three were at the Havenscourt-Lockwood campus, according to statements from Clinton's group and the school district.

Student volunteers were to plant trees, organize libraries and paint murals throughout Sunday. Recently retired Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch and free agent quarterback Josh Johnson, both Oakland natives and founders of Fam 1st Family Foundation, were on hand, too. The foundation aims to empower, educate and build self-esteem for underprivileged youth, according to a statement on its Twitter page.

The five schools serving 1,500 students on the campus are the Lockwood Child Development Center, Community United Elementary, Futures Elementary, Roots Academy Middle School and Coliseum College Prep Academy.
