He Had a Dream

On January 16, 2013 millions throughout the nation will come together to volunteer and honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, who never stopped asking the question, "What are you doing for others?" The MLK Day of Service is a moment to work together to fulfill King's vision for a better America - it's a day "on" instead of a day off.

There are countless ways to get involved this MLK Day. Find the one that's right for you.
