Join volunteers from Belmont, Fisk, Lipscomb, Meharry, Nashville State, Tennessee State University, Trevecca and Vanderbilt, as well as other area colleges and universities in honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by taking some time to volunteer virtually on MLK Day!
We'll gather together in an opening session to hear an inspirational charge from our college and university leaders, breakout into sessions where we'll learn about ways to serve virtually and even begin doing some virtual service, and then assemble together again afterwards for a brief time of reflection.
