Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service
Mon., Jan. 20, 2025
Martin Luther King Jr. Day is the only federal holiday designated as a national Day of Service. Begun in 1994, the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service has continued to grow, encouraging Americans to volunteer and make an impact in their communities.

Harker’s Second Annual Day of Service

Harker’s Day of Service is Mon., Jan. 20. This is a chance to commemorate the life and legacy of Dr. King with activities hosted by the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, and the community service and student activities coordinators. It is designed to encourage the Harker community of students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents and friends of Harker to answer this question posed by Dr. King:

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?”

We are working with different organizations to create opportunities to volunteer on-site. Once those opportunities have been finalized, we will share that information with you in the Announcements section of the parent portal.

In the meantime, please use the link below to let us know you are committed to participating in community service activities at our upper school campus. The form will be open now until Dec. 20 or when we arrive at 200 total participants, whichever comes first.

Note: Harker’s upper school students will receive credit for service hours on the Day of Service.
