Comments on: MLK Day of Service: It is Better to Give Than to Receive http://uptownflavor.com/2009/01/09/serving-our-community/ Harlem's Lifestyle Destination Since 2006 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 00:08:45 +0200 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: My World My Responsibility http://uptownflavor.com/2009/01/09/serving-our-community/#comment-30828 My World My Responsibility Sat, 10 Jan 2009 19:38:34 +0000 http://uptownflavor.com/?p=11747#comment-30828 Great post and we love that the focus is on the MLK Day of Service. In our opinion...that's the truly transformative day. It's inspirational (the true realization of the "Dream"), but it's also a true testament to this administration's commitment to service. That's actually why we're reaching out... As we searched for paraphernalia that captured the power of the coming inauguration, we were struck by the dearth of merchandise that captured the power of the moment (everything was tacky, and nothing talked about Dr. King and President Obama). So we created our own designs to fill that void, and a suite of products featuring those images. 10% of all proceeds will go toward supporting the construction of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington DC. People have responded well to the designs. Check them out here: http://mywmyr.wordpress.com (my world my responsibility) Great post and we love that the focus is on the MLK Day of Service.
