Do you have a project Idea?
To better serve our Long Beach community, Leadership Long Beach is currently accepting project requests.
- Service projects must be completed between 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. on MLK Day (January 16, 2023)
- Projects should be concise enough to be completed during the time frame and easy enough to allow volunteers to jump in and make a difference!
- Projects must be conducted within the cities of Long Beach or Signal Hill
- Projects must have a dedicated leader who will provide the guidance and supervision volunteers need to conduct the work.
Leadership Long Beach MLK Day of Service#MLK Day #LLBserves
For the 13th year in a row, Leadership Long Beach and our partners have brought together our alumni and community volunteers from across Long Beach to serve together in honor of the National Day of Service and in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Over the years thousands of volunteers have completed dozens of community service projects, growing the Long Beach MLK Day of Service into the largest MLK service day in LA County.
Please share this opportunity with family, friends, and community groups to join us in “Making it a Day On, Not a Day Off’ for Long Beach.
