How will you answer Dr. King’s question?
Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: what are you doing for others?” Each year, the Corporation for National and Community Service honors Dr. King’s legacy by asking Americans to make the King Holiday a national day of service. January 18, 2010 is rapidly approaching and we are asking you to get involved and take up Dr. King’s call to action. Check out the video above that tells the story of last year’s historic King Day of Service and get inspired to start your own service project.

Now is a great time to start planning a King Holiday project and I thought I would share this email from our Acting CEO, Nicola Goren.

United We Serve Team
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: what are you doing for others?" Across the country, Americans will answer that question by making the January 18, 2010 King Holiday a national day of service. We here at the Corporation for National and Community Service are asking individuals in the tech community to think about how you can help serve others on the King holiday and throughout the year.
What can technologists do to help others on the King Holiday? There is a spectrum of involvement - from organizing a large-scale hackathon, to utilizing the King Holiday to build a blog for charity - everyone fits in according to whatever you can give.
