Sid Jacobson JCC to host MLK Day of Service

The Island Now

Sid Jacobson Jewish Community Center will host Dream to End Hunger, MLK Day of Service projects on Jan. 15 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Give back to the community and volunteer along with your neighbors as we assemble individual-wrapped meals to be donated to those in need alongside Rise Against Hunger, an international hunger relief organization.

We will also sort, organize and assemble packages to support children in local communities. For families with young children, there will be a fun and interactive performance to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called “A Long Walk to School.”

Dream to End Hunger is part of UJA Federation’s Time for Good volunteer platform encouraging New Yorkers to give back to their community. Registration is required to take part in the Day of Service, visit sjjcc.org/communityengagement to register.
