About this Event

Global Citizen is non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting civic engagement, community volunteering, civic responsibility, and sustained active citizenship among diverse groups, particularly young people. Global Citizen promotes democracy building, voter education and participation, locally and globally. We bring together people of all ages and backgrounds to build diverse partnerships through serving others, thus realizing how much more we have in common than our difference.


What we will be doing on Saturday, January 10th , 10AM - 12 PM:

Volunteers will help bundle pallets of t-shirts into bundles requested by King Day organizers for their volunteers. It involves unpacking boxes of shirts and repacking bags and boxes of specific size breakdowns and labeling them for organizations to pick up later that weekend.
