list of steps to take to get involved with usa service on monday, january 19

Monday is Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday and a great day to thank him for all the good he accomplished in his years of service to America and the world. Because of his courage in trying to promote equality among all men and all women, we enjoy a greater emphasis on an individual’s rights. He was a tremendous example for standing up for what you believe in and for getting things done in a peaceful way. The President-elect and his wife are calling for Dr. King Day to be a day of service in America. They have made it easy for all Americans to get involved in their communities. Here are some ways to find out what you can do.
