    J.C. Lewis Serves Honors Rev. Dr. King

    Observed each year on the third Monday in January as “a day on, not a day off,” MLK Day is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities.

    Dr. King recognized the power of service. He famously said, “Everyone can be great because everybody can serve.”

    Observing the Martin Luther King, Jr. federal holiday through service is a way to begin each year with a commitment to making your community a better place. Your service honors Dr. King’s life and teachings and helps meet community challenges.  Service also brings people together of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. The MLK Day of Service encourages all types of service, particularly projects that have a lasting impact and connect participants to ongoing service.

    Today we partnered with AmeriCorps Volunteers and found the following opportunities in our Community.  Today may be the day your get started, you research and you learn how in these covid times organizations need your service. It may mean that you attend a volunteer training online today to prepare to serve as a regular volunteer. Or it may mean that you volunteer with a new organization you want to learn more about. Where and how you serve is up to you – the important thing is to get involved.

    We consistently share opportunities within our partnering organizations and please let us know your favorite place to serve so we can share!
