Martin Luther King Week of Service

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?'” Celebrate Dr. King’s legacy by committing to volunteer with United Way.

In honor of Dr. King, our United Way will speak to his legacy and ask volunteers to support our efforts around Youth Success and Equity. Today marks an opportunity to volunteer your service to support our community.

We invite you to join local youth and community in a variety of activities in Santa Cruz County.
