my first MLK day volunteering
i, along with a few of my soRHOrs, participated in City Year/Americorps 20th annual MLK Day of Service. there was an opening ceremony with Mayor Bloomberg, a closing ceremony with a spoken word artist performing "i have a dream" and a couple step teams.
there were various projects happening that day--mosaic making at a community center, repainting a school, making food for a shelter, and mural painting were among the projects.
we painted the principal's office and did a decent job!
i was most impressed by the turnout--a good half of the people volunteering were teenagers. props to the youth who had school off and came out.
