Celebrate MLK Day

Dear Kirk, With America observing Dr. King's federal holiday today, I want to thank you once again for the tremendous role you played in helping us to "Build the Dream." This is the very first Martin Luther King, Jr. Day that Americans can celebrate with a visit to Dr. King's glorious new Memorial in Washington, and to commemorate this wonderful occasion we laid a wreath at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial at 8:00 AM this morning. There are many wonderful ways you can commemorate Dr. King's Birthday, including: *** Signing Martin Luther King, Jr's birthday card. *** Offering your time as a volunteer for a day of service at a local charity. *** Visiting the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial at any time. *** Talking with your children, grandchildren or other young relatives about what the legacy of Dr. King means to you personally. *** Making a $83 donation in honor of Dr. King's 83rd birthday. When you make a donation of $83 you will receive your very own "Piece of History" commemorative plaque, featuring an actual piece of granite that was carved from the Stone of Hope. Whatever you choose, I hope you feel a special sense of pride during this year's King Holiday, as someone who played a special role in helping us "Build the Dream." Thank you so much. Sincerely, Harry E. Johnson, Sr. President & CEO Washington, DC Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial Project Foundation, Inc.
