MLK Day of Service at Kansas State University
Join us in celebrating the powerful legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at Kansas State University’s annual day of service on January 20th. This is a profound opportunity to touch lives and make a lasting difference in your community. As someone who has experienced the deep fulfillment of volunteering, I can personally attest to its transformative impact.
Take, my recent experience mentoring teens from challenging backgrounds. Me and my fellow mentors offered a place for open and safe conversations. From this nurturing environment grew a group profoundly transformed. I believe this experience we shared is a testament to the incredible power of community service. It’s moments like these that not only honor Dr. King’s vision but also enrich our own lives immeasurably.
So for those interested breakfast will be served at 8:30 am. If you’re unable to attend breakfast the group will be meeting at The Stanly School of Leadership at 9 am. Together, let's step into a day of service that promises not just to remember Dr. King’s dream, but to actively live it.
