HOW TO PLAN LESSONS AND ACTIVITES FOR DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. DAY OF SERVICE! (1614 hits)



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE!


Plan Your MLK Day of Service

The Corporation for National and Community Service is asking Americans to appropriately honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy on January 16 by making the holiday a day ON -- versus a day off. MLK Day became a national day of service in 1994, when Congress passed legislation to give the holiday even greater significance. A dedicated website offers up a toolkit to plan for the day of service, enables organizers to register projects nationwide, and provides free lesson plans on Dr. King’s legacy of service.
