Celebrate and Honor the Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

“Everybody can be great…because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”

― Martin Luther King Jr.

This January, several local Arkansas organizations are doing their part to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

The Northwest Arkansas Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Council has a variety of events planned as part of their 26th Annual MLK Holiday Celebration. Events include a Food Drive, Memorial Service, Freedom March, and more. For more information, visit their website by clicking here.

On Thursday, January 13th, EngageNWA is also hosting a virtual event that communicates the importance of service in the workplace by using MLK Day as a foundation. To pre-register for free, sign up here.

There are many ways to serve your community throughout the year. Find an organization that suits you on our Community Organizations page, reach out to them, and begin serving those around you.
