Community Service Project

Service is a core pillar of the MLK Day Celebration. The Community Service Project focuses on caring for Utah’s unhoused community through the collection of donations and the assembly of winter care packages.

Participants are encouraged to contribute by donating essential items or supporting the effort financially. This project reflects Dr. King’s call to action and reminds us that building the Beloved Community requires compassion, service, and tangible support for those most impacted by inequity.
