This year, the Town of Lexington commemorates Martin Luther King, Jr. Day with its fourth annual family-friendly day of volunteer activities supporting the underserved. Come lend a hand, it's fun and meaningful. Last year we had almost 400 volunteers make a difference in the lives of more than 2,000 people. It's amazing what a community can do! 

Events begin at 9:​00 am with an interfaith discussion about race at Grace Chapel (59 Worthen Road, Lexington: Coffee and donuts will be provided.) Sponsored by the Lexington Interfaith Clergy Association (LICA) and the Lexington Human Rights Council (LHRC). At 11:00 am, join us on the Unity Walk from the Minuteman Statue on the Lexington Green to Cary Memorial Hall (1605 Massachusetts Ave., Lexington). The Opening Ceremony, begins at 11:30 am, where performers including Lexington literary performer Regie O'Hare Gibson and the SNAP Sing Along Chorus, will share the spirt of
Dr. King's legacy and kick off the day's service/volunteer opportunities.
