Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.
~Martin Luther King, Jr.
Martin Luther King, Jr. worked tirelessly during his lifetime to strengthen communities, empower individuals and build bridges. The MLK Day of Service is an opportunities to continue his legacy. There are many ways to serve the community today and throughout the year.
The MLK Day website, sponsored by the United States government, has lots of information, including a history of Martin Luther King, Jr. and ways to serve.
Also, please visit AIF's "How Can I Serve My Community if I am Busy?" document about how to serve in person, online and with resources.
Thanks for working to help the community, to empower yourself and to build bridges!
