On January 16, Comcast employees celebrated the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by participating in MLK Day of Service across the Beltway Region, including:
- Washington, D.C.: The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday D.C. Peace Walk and Parade and the MLK Day Wellness Fair. Participants marched with elected officials, non-profit organizations, marching bands, military groups, local businesses and more in honor of Dr. King Jr.
- Silver Spring, MD: The Maryland Governor-Elect’s Office on Service and Volunteerism’s Day of Service at Interfaith Works. Volunteers helped paint and restore residence halls, sort clothing, and prepare meals for members of the community.
- Richmond, VA: The Clean City Commission’s Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Day of Service. Volunteers helped to clean up Saint James Street.
