Today, 19 January, is being celebrated as Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
of Service, an observance designed to honor the legacy of Dr. King and
to provide an opportunity for Americans from all walks of life to work
together to serve their neighbors and communities.
As part of this observance, organizations and individuals around New
England and across the rest of the nation are participating in a number
of initiatives throughout the weekend. These initiatives include
delivering meals, refurbishing schools and community centers, collecting
food and clothing, signing up mentors, promoting nonviolence,
supporting veterans and military families, and much more.
