BGSU to hold 14th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service

Students, faculty and staff will conduct community service activities on campus and in the community

For many, Martin Luther King Jr. Day means a day off from school or work. At Bowling Green State University, the emphasis is on making it a "day on" by offering students, faculty and staff the opportunity to give back to the community.

On Monday, the University will hold its 14th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the BGSU campus and in the City of Bowling Green.

Hosted by the C. Raymond Marvin Center for Student Leadership and Civic Engagement, the day of service allows BGSU students, faculty and staff to create public good through community service activities while honoring the legacy of Dr. King.

Check-in for volunteers begins at 10 a.m. in the Lenhart Grand Ballroom at the Bowen-Thompson Student Union. Volunteers will head to their service destinations at Noon.

BGSU requires face coverings for everyone, regardless of vaccination status, in indoor public settings on its campuses. Unvaccinated individuals should wear face coverings whenever they are around others on campus, both indoors and outdoors.
