A Day On ROBS celebrates the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday as a “a day on, not a day off,” with more than 450 people participating in seven service projects across the city.
Volunteers like Jackson Pierce (grade 3) restocked food pantries with 1,000 pounds of beans, rice, flour, and coffee. Others organized and distributed food such as canned goods and frozen meat at the Houston Food Bank.
“Everybody can be great, because anybody can serve.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
