Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service | Generations Over Dinner

Celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service. This day is a defining moment each year when Americans across the country step up to make communities more equitable and take action to create the Beloved Community of Dr. King’s dream. While Dr. King believed the Beloved Community was possible, he acknowledged and fought for systemic change. His example is our call to action.You are invited to lay the foundation of the King Day of Service as you start the conversation and why people serve in his memory.

Generations Over Dinner is a multi-faceted volunteer opportunity that honors Dr. King by fostering a sense of constructive action, civic participation, and belonging while combating the corrosive effects of hate on our democracy and safety. Generations Over Dinner is a global initiative to create meaningful multi-generational experiences and conversations.

Join us for an engaging lunch where you’ll be invited to provide your insight and perspective from your generation. Participants will be placed at tables with a total of 5 different generations present! During the lunch, a facilitator will help us navigate questions that spark conversation of how each generation may see the world differently. This activity is a great way to understand our community and build peace between our neighbors - a perfect way to honor Dr. King’s legacy.
