MLK Day of Service is held annually and will be on January 18, 2010.  Volunteer to "Make It A Day ON, Not A Day OFF." Join us in a morning of service projects at agencies around Columbus in celebration of the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This annual event brings together hundreds of students and community members for a morning of service in honor of Dr. King.

Participants will receive breakfast provided by Panera Bread, lunch by Papa Johns and a commemorative t-shirt.

There is no pre-registration.  Registration is on a first-come-first-serve basis.  Groups are encouraged to attend, but make sure to register together.  We may not be able to accommodate groups larger than 5 people based on the needs of the service sites.  Please be prepared to separate into smaller groups if needed. If we are able to accommodate groups, the entire group must be present at the time of registration. We are unable to “save” spots at service sites throughout the registration process.
