Friend,

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the greatest public servants this country has ever known. He moved mountains during his lifetime, awakening our nation – and the world – to deeply ingrained injustice. That's why tomorrow, in his honor, we recommit ourselves to pursuing justice for all. We all know there is still much work to be done. 

As we honor his legacy, we remember his steadfast dedication to the pursuit of equality and tolerance for people of all backgrounds and beliefs. And at a time when our nation feels deeply divided, we must continue working to live up to Dr. King’s dream that one day this nation can live up to its creed.

That's why tomorrow, in his honor, we recommit ourselves to pursuing justice for all. We all know there is still much work to be done. So in concert with the inauguration of President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris, I'm encouraging you and your loved ones to partake in tomorrow's National Day of Service. To serve our country, our communities, as Dr. King did. 

This National Day of Service is an opportunity for all Americans to do good for others – to unite in serving our communities during a time of crisis and heightened division. Please, join me in what is just the beginning of building back better, together: 

Step up to serve your community on tomorrow's National Day of Service in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The Biden inaugural website has virtual and socially distanced ways to give back in accordance with CDC protocol, and I encourage you to click here to learn more.

Whether it's a virtual read-aloud to students, creating cards for patients recovering from COVID-19 or donating warm coats to people in need, I hope you'll look into ways to give back tomorrow as we honor the life of Dr. King.

Together, we must strive to rise above divisiveness and bring those from all walks of life together to achieve his dream of greater opportunity for all.

Thank you,

Gary
