AmeriCorps MLK Day of Service

  • Hands On Atlanta 600 Means Street Northwest Atlanta, GA, 30318 United States (map)

Hands On Atlanta is a proud recipient of the 2024 AmeriCorps MLK Day grant!

Join us this MLK Day as we come together to build a Beloved Community through unity, service, and transformation. Let's honor Dr. King's legacy by working toward a more just and equitable society, where everyone is valued and respected, regardless of their race, ability, religion, or background. By participating in service projects, we can bridge divides, heal wounds, and create lasting change that will benefit our communities for years to come.

About MLK Day

MLK Day is the only federal holiday designated as a National Day of Service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities. During the last quarter-century, the MLK Day of Service has grown, and its impact increased as more Americans embraced the idea that citizenship involves taking an active role in improving communities.

 AmeriCorps Invites You
