Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is more than just a day off - it's a Day of Service

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'"

On January 19, 2015 - you can help others in your community or find activities  celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day with your family.

“Remember, Celebrate, Act”, serves as a reminder that the Dr. King Holiday is a day for community and humanitarian service programs.
