Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" Each year, Americans across the country answer that question by coming together on the King Holiday to serve their neighbors and communities.

January 16, 2012, marks the anniversary of the Martin Luther King, Jr. federal holiday, a perfect opportunity for Americans to honor Dr. King’s legacy through service.  The MLK Day of Service empowers individuals, strengthens communities, bridges barriers, creates solutions to social problems, and moves us closer to Dr. King’s vision of a beloved community.

The MLK Day of Service is a part of United We Serve, the President's national call to service initiative. It calls for Americans from all walks of life to work together to provide solutions to our most pressing national problems.
