Dr. King Day of Service - A Day On, Not a Day Off!
Purpose
The National Society of Black Engineers and the Black Action Society at the University of Pittsburgh have partnered to plan the 2010 MLK Day of Service. The event was programmed to engage the student population of the University of Pittsburgh in the celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life. The student community of Pittsburgh will be given an opportunity to give back to the community for which the students live in as well as teach and learn the life and ways of Dr. King. Students will get the chance to make a positive impact on the community with hopes to positively affect the community that has raised these college students through their adult years. Also, students are to volunteer with the hopes to inspire some child to want to attend college in the future as an effort to increase the society’s literacy.
On this day of service, these two organizations plan on partnering with several other student organizations to do acts of kindness in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Student leaders of both organizations are encouraging other students as well as the Pittsburgh community to make the holiday “a day on, not a day off.”
The event will take place Monday, January 18th, 2010 during 11:00AM and 3:00PM. A brief orientation will occur at 10:00AM on that Monday on the main campus of the University of Pittsburgh in Oakland, Pennsylvania.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Projects:
The projects that have been planned focus on the following areas:
Increasing the literacy of children
-Read to the children and educate them about the life of Dr. King through various hospitals, community centers, and local libraries
-Pack children books that will be shipped to facilities or homes to encourage childhood literacy
Providing clothing to unfortunate adults and youth
-Conduct a clothing drive three weeks prior to the event
-Donate winter jackets to infants in foster care
Provide mentoring to misguided youth in the Pittsburgh area
Feeding those whom are unable to provide food for their selves
-Work with area Food Banks, homeless shelters, and soup kitchens to make sure that the less fortunate are being reached.
Please be aware that the projects are not restricted to these areas and ideas. Our program staff is still open to more opportunities and ideas for the event. Suggestions can be made to Erica Brokaw at co.programs2.pittnsbe@gmail.com.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who can participate in the 2010 MLK Day of Service?
This event is not only restricted to the University of Pittsburgh student community. People of all ages,
backgrounds, and abilities are encouraged to serve on Martin Luther King’s Day, and to make the day the beginning of an ongoing commitment to a cause that is meaningful to them and serves a need in the Pittsburgh community.
How your organization/ corporation can help?
Several local Pittsburgh organizations and corporations have offered to join in the planning and fulfillment of this day of service. Your organization may also be involved in this day of service.
