King Day of Service

Civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr. recognized the power of service to strengthen communities and achieve common goals.

According to MLKDay.gov:

Initiated by Congress in 1994, King Day of Service builds on his legacy by transforming the federal holiday honoring Dr. King into a national day of community service grounded in his teachings of nonviolence and social justice.

The 2009 King Day of Service is on January 19.
