American Chronicle | Communities Gearing Up for Massive Day of Service on King Holiday

American Chronicle | Communities Gearing Up for Massive Day of Service on King Holiday: "record number of volunteers on the Martin Luther King Jr. Federal holiday, fueled by President-elect Obama's call for Americans to serve on King Day and throughout the year.

Organizers of the annual service day say momentum is building in the wake of the President-elect's call and the timing of the holiday coming one day before the Inauguration. In addition to asking Americans to serve, President-elect Obama, Vice President-elect Biden, and their families will participate in service on the January 19 holiday in the Washington D.C. area."
