MLK Day Of Service Planned At Olivet Baptist Church

  • Friday, January 17, 2025

Pi Omega and Zeta Kappa Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. continues their commitment to “Soaring to Greater Heights of Service and Sisterhood” through their annual MLK Day of Service. Chapter members will collaborate with the Matthew 25 Ministry of Olivet Baptist Church to serve the homeless in our community.

We will provide to-go meals and backpacks with winter supplies to the homeless community. (i.e. blankets, gloves, masks, hand sanitizer, ponchos, socks, etc.) The event will take place on Monday, at Olivet Baptist Church from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

Statistics show that over 4,000 individuals experience homelessness each year in Chattanooga, with over 1,000 homeless children in public schools. Equally, voter registration is a crucial aspect of democracy, and minority communities need to participate in the electoral process. Voting is the chance to stand up for the issues that significantly impact minority communities like affordable housing, economic justice, environmental protection, and quality education.
