[YEP-DC] Sign Up to Volunteer with YEP-DC on MLK Day!

As this year draws to an end, there is no better way to start 2013 than with a satisfying day of volunteering. YEP-DC is teaming up with City Year to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by participating in a day of service.

 

On this special day of civic engagement, neighborhood collaboration, and volunteerism, we will transform a high-needs school into a more engaging, educational, and vibrant place for students to learn and play.  Projects will include painting murals, building benches, and planting green spaces, among others.

 

We are looking to have a group of 25-30 volunteers.  Please register here by Wednesday, January 5th, to ensure that you will be on the same project with other YEP-DC members.  We look forward to seeing you there!

 

When: Saturday, January 19, 2013 9:00 am – 1:00 pm. Registration opens at 8:30 am. 

Where: Burrville Neighborhood in Northeast Washington, DC (We will be organizing a carpool.  This neighborhood is also accessible via metro/bus.)

RSVP: http://bit.ly/SK9Phx

 

**NOTE:  We have gotten a few emails about MLK day conflicting with Inauguration.  Technically, they are the same day, but City Year is celebrating MLK day with service on the Saturday before.
