To honor Dr. King's legacy of community and justice, TBS is hosting our annual MLK Jr. Day of Service to make it a 'day on' of volunteering and giving with community. At the University Avenue Campus, we will be hosting an essential supplies donation drive, where you can drop off new or gently-used items from this list of requested items, to be distributed to organizations serving those in need. We will also be helping connect TBS families with one other to coordinate attending volunteering events with local organizations. A list and sign up will be posted and updated. Coretta Scott King said, “The greatest birthday gift my husband could receive is if people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds celebrated the holiday by performing individual acts of kindness through service to others.” I hope this Monday, January 19th, you will join to “receive the gift of giving” through serving others. As we teach our children, it feels good to do good! I look forward to spending time with you to uplift the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and all the causes he, and many others, championed for justice.
