UAB teams with Hands On Birmingham for annual Day of Service

Sign up for the Jan. 21 Martin Luther King Day of Service

The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and Hands On Birmingham will partner for the 2013 Martin Luther King Day of Service. On Monday, Jan. 21, 2013, UAB staff members are invited to gather and honor the spirit of Dr. King with a day of community service activities.

Hands On Birmingham, an organization that facilitates area volunteer efforts, is coordinating the day’s events, with opportunities that range from gardening to painting, food preparation to school cleanup.

This event is one of many in UAB’s partnership in Fifty Years Forward, the yearlong citywide U.S. Civil Rights Movement commemoration. For more information and to sign up, visit www.handsonbirmingham.org/joinUAB.
