President-elect Barack Obama has called on Americans to spend Monday’s Martin Luther King Jr. holiday engaging in community service projects. His transition team has offered a list of more than 8,500 projects occurring nationwide for individuals/families/teams to participate in.
As many employers offer Monday as a paid holiday, I encourage you to meet the President-elect’s call and engage in an act of service — no matter how small — with your family, your coworkers, your friends or just by yourself.
