OWSP: M.L. King Day of Service
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. believed in the Beloved Community, and Oprah Winfrey scholars strive to create the community for which Dr. King and others worked to inspire. Each year on the third Monday in January, the Martin Luther King, Jr., Day of Service takes place. On Monday, January 15, 2024, in partnership with Atlanta’s King Center for Nonviolent Change, Oprah Winfrey scholars served to support the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Annual Commemorative Service, voter registration, and a collection drive for the unsheltered. Sharing this experience allowed Oprah Winfrey scholars to grow as individuals and a community in service to others.
