MLK Day of Service

Honoring the Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

Join us on January 26, 2025 for a meaningful and impactful Martin Luther King, Jr Day of Service (MLK) at the JCC. Honoring the legacy of MLK, we invite you to give back to the community, while making new friends, and learning together.

Whether you enjoy building things or are a craft enthusiast, there’s a project for you to enjoy. This day is about coming together, making an impact, and honoring the spirit of service. No experience necessary—just bring your enthusiasm and a willingness to contribute!
