On January 18, 2021, our country will pause and remember a civil rights hero, Dr. Martin Luther King. Since 1994, MLK Day has been a national day of service – a “day on, not a day off.” ServeOhio is proud to sponsor and promote this day of service in Ohio in partnership with AmeriCorps and the American Electric Power Foundation. This year, we’re providing funding support for ten organizations who will engage 312 volunteers across the state in celebration of MLK Day. Read about those projects here. Additionally, thousands of volunteers will get involved in their communities to not only volunteer, but to honor the legacy of Dr. King who famously said, “Everyone can be great because everybody can serve.”
Here are a few ways you can serve on MLK Day:
