“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?’”
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
To mark the 25th Anniversary, the White House, through its program, United We Serve launched “MLK 25 Challenge: What Are You Doing For Others?” It is part of President Obama’s initiative to encourage Americans to get involved in providing solutions to our most pressing national problems. According to “United We Serve” (www.serve.gov), the program is “a call to all Americans to honor Dr. King by pledging to take at least 25 actions during 2011 to make a difference for others and strengthen our communities.”
In addition, the program launched another website, www.mlkday.gov, offering 100 ways to get involved in the national call to service; volunteer opportunities are available throughout the year.
