SUMMARY: In honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination, a group of volunteers conducted a community clean-up in Hattiesburg, collecting several bags of garbage from different areas. Men from the shelter also decided to help out and clean up in their community. Later in the month, they will be hosting an interactive reading session at their women's shelter, which is free and open to families in need of educational support. This event is to honor the late civil rights activist and provide educational opportunities for those in need.

The day is held each year in honor of the late civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
