Three Service Project Ideas for MLK Day
Martin Luther King Day,
celebrated as a day of service by many Americans, will be
observed on January 18
If you’d like to volunteer
but would prefer to do so in a socially-distanced way, here
are three ideas.
• Plant a tree: Trees help
clean the air and are natural carbon absorbers. You can help
offset your carbon footprint by planting a tree on your own
property, or with permission, in a local park or public
space.
• Promote job readiness:
Connect virtually with fellow community members to boost
their job readiness. Conduct a mock interview over video
chat and assist with resume and job application preparation.
• Deliver meals: Arrange
for contactless drop-off and deliver meals to the elderly,
infirm or otherwise homebound.
While volunteer efforts
may look a bit different this year, there are still many
safe ways to give back.
