This MLK Day, Give Back

Since 1994, the holiday has been a federally recognized day of service.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is of course an opportunity to honor its namesake, but it also offers a great chance to give back.

Since federal legislation was signed into law in 1994, MLK Day has been recognized as a day of service. The website mlkday.gov has more details on the history of the day of service, as well as ideas on getting involved.

Locally, there are several opportunities to give back. Community Thread has an entire data base of volunteer opportunities. To find other ways to give back, both today and into the future, you can search here.
