Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s Day of Service is January 20th, 2025.


How about continuing your MLK DAY by volunteering one day a month -every 1st Saturday?

What if we tied these monthly volunteer events into improving our schools, our communities?

This vision is what we call Familyhood.

Familyhood is driven by two mottoes:

1) “Every school shall have a functioning Student Government Association, Parent Teacher Association and Alumni Association”. 

 

A long-term goal of Familyhood is to promote and empower grow these school-based organizations. Each month, through 1st Saturdays, time should be set aside to hear from each organization and/or where the school is in starting an organization that may not be functioning.

2) “Every school shall have a garden, a farmers market and a grocery store.”

Another long-term goal  of Familyhood is to utilize these school-based, food-related projects  as projects all the generations can work on and grow with.

Together, they start with the school garden, increase membership in the school -based organizations to add the farmers market as a project, to Increase in membership with more experience to plan and operate a school-based grocery store.

Both motto’s, use the word “every” because today, some school’s have them and some do not.
