Story by A. Blum: Press & Guide: More than 450 volunteers from The University of Michigan-Dearborn and Henry Ford College participated in the 25th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service on Monday. The event is a partnership that brings students, faculty, staff and alumni from both schools together for a morning of service throughout southeast Michigan.
Volunteers started the day at U of M-Dearborn’s University Center before heading out to several on-campus locations and 19 off-campus agencies. U of M-Dearborn Chancellor Daniel Little welcomed participants to campus and reflected on the annual event.
“This is one of the traditions of the University of Michigan-Dearborn — and of our collaboration with Henry Ford College — which we can be most proud,” Little said. “Twenty-five years, uninterrupted, serving and recognizing and embodying the legacy of one of our nation’s great heroes, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.”
