MLK Day of Service - CleanUp and Community Improvement 2022

  • Martin Luther King, JR. Day of Service United States (map)

Every year, in honor of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rock Creek Conservancy, in partnership with the National Park Service, and Montgomery Parks, part of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC), celebrates MLK Day with the MLK Weekend of Service.

Dr. King devoted his life to equality, social justice, economic advancement, and opportunity for all. This multi-day volunteer event is part of a nationwide effort to empower individuals, build community connections, and celebrate Dr. King’s conviction that ‘all of life is interrelated’ by protecting the parklands that make our region resilient to climate change.

In 2022, join Verizon Wireless the Global CleanUp Alliance in cleanups throughout the entire country.

The Global CleanUp Alliance includes Earth Day, National CleanUp Day, Keep America Beautiful and many other local or national organizations.
