FEATURED EVENTS

The Martin Luther King, Jr., holiday is an official day of service and celebrates the civil rights leader’s life and legacy. Join us this MLK Day as we come together to build a Beloved Community. Let's honor Dr. King's legacy through service and volunteerism and demonstrate how joining together in service can transform your life and the lives of others. Whether it's a small or big act of kindness, service has the power to unite people, build bridges, and heal divides.
