    Honoring Dr. King’s Legacy Through Service in Philadelphia
    Philadelphia holds a singular place in the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. It is home to the nation’s first and largest Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, launched in 1996—not just as a holiday, but as a powerful call to action rooted in Dr. King’s vision of “a day on, not a day off.” What began with 1,000 volunteers has grown into a regional movement engaging tens of thousands of people each year across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.

    At the heart of this effort is Global Citizen 365, led by Todd Bernstein, president of Global Citizen 365 and founder and director of the Greater Philadelphia Martin Luther King Day of Service. Under his leadership, the initiative has become both a cornerstone of civic action and a year-round catalyst for community engagement and opportunity.

    On January 19, 2026, the 31st Annual Greater Philadelphia Martin Luther King Day of Service will be anchored at Temple University’s Pearson-McGonigle Hall, bringing together volunteers of all ages for service projects, a Jobs & Opportunity Fair, community resources, health and wellness activities, and more—all in honor of Dr. King’s enduring legacy.

  • Insight Pt. 1: Vanesse Lloyd-Sgambati - VLS Journeys

    Insight Pt. 1: Vanesse Lloyd-Sgambati - VLS Journeys
    Dec 28 2025
    Guest host Vanesse Lloyd-Sgambati speaks with award-winning children’s book author Alice Faye Duncan for her monthly feature VLS Journeys. Alice has two new books released in January 2026: BLUES BOY (The B.B. King Story) and THE DREAM BUILDER’S BLUEPRINT (Dr. King’s Message to Young People). The Dream Builder’s Blueprint centers on Martin Luther King Jr. and his powerful 1967 visit with Philadelphia students. Alice believes that books are gifts that create lifelong learners—and writing for children is her superpower. You can learn more about her work at http://www.alicefayeduncan.com.

    The Dream Builder’s Blueprint highlights Dr. King’s appearance at Barratt Junior High School on October 26, 1967, where he delivered his iconic “What Is Your Life’s Blueprint?” speech. Speaking directly to students, Dr. King emphasized dignity, excellence, self-worth, and justice—messages that continue to resonate today. The speech is frequently revisited and commemorated for its timeless relevance, as noted by WHYY.

    For her feature “What Is Philadelphia Reading,” Vanesse also speaks with Kevin Washington, a Philadelphia native who was a student at Barratt Junior High School and witnessed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic 1967 speech firsthand. Kevin went on to become President and CEO of the YMCA of the USA, leading the nation’s largest nonprofit focused on youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

    Here is a link to Dr. King’s speech at Barratt Junior High School: [link here].
