A day of significance
Martin Luther King Jr. fought for the rights and dignity of all people, and his legacy inspires us to continue working towards a more just and equitable world. By honoring his memory and ideals on this day, we can reaffirm our commitment to creating a better future for all.
The holiday was officially signed into law on Nov. 2, 1983, by President Ronald Reagan following 15 years of advocacy led by civil rights activists. It became the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service, encouraging Americans to volunteer in their communities.
