January: 2023 MLK Day of Service in Nashville

  Every year, I participate in the MLK Joint day of Service in Nashville, TN. As many know, I attended Vanderbilt University for my undergraduate studies. Since I was already in town for a wedding, I was super excited to participate again this year. The day lasted from 10am to 4pm in which we did various tasks with many others schooled and organizations. As seen in the picture above, we helped sort and move potatoes and other produce for those in need. Many organizations that we helped with their projects were Feed the Children, Heartbound Ministries, Hope Kids, STARS Nashville, and so many more .  It felt really good to see such a large number of people out and help serving while also celebrating a great holiday. Since the pandemic started, it has been hard to have these large scale volunteer opportunities and efforts which I know has strained organizations that are dedicated to serving the community so this was very refreshing to witness and be a part of.  love this event because w
