Celebrate MLK Day as a “day on, not a day off” through 5 different service stations with kid-friendly activities and meaningful reflection.
About this Event

Who this In Person Event is for:

Ages  2-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome, but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling.

What you’ll be doing:

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Everybody can be great. Because anybody can serve." Join us as we share this message with the kids of Indianapolis and celebrate MLK Day in partnership with the Madam Walker Legacy Center! 

Seeds of Caring will provide 5 youth service stations as a part of Madam Walker Legacy Center’s 44th Annual MLK Day of Celebration. Activities include assembling care kits for unhoused neighbors, packing snack bags for people experiencing food insecurity, creating suncatchers for seniors to brighten their day, writing and drawing letters to city officials advocating for change in our community, and creating a reflection craft inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy. In addition to the service activities, you will find activities provided by our community partners.

Note: This event is larger and busier than our standard Seeds of Caring events. Families are invited to explore various activity stations at their own pace.

Specific Instructions:

All event supplies will be provided.

This service opportunity is made possible through the generous support of our sponsors:

Presenting Sponsor: Barnes & Thornburg LLP

Gold Level Sponsors: Riley Children’s Health, WISH TV

Silver Level Sponsors: AES, Citizens Energy Group, Everwise, Glick Philanthropies, Sullivan Home Loans, White Castle
