Honoring MLK Day
Through Service
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that"
"Strength to Love,” MLK 1963
Martin Luther King Jr. Day serves as a powerful tribute to Dr. King's legacy in civil rights and justice. Honoring MLK Day through service reflects his belief in community and collective action. Volunteering, supporting education, or participating in community projects honors his vision for equality and compassion. This day urges us to reflect on his teachings and work towards a more just society, embodying his principles of love and service.
