Sanford School MLK Day of Service 2026

Created by Jamy Haughey Contact

MLK Day of Service: Monday, January 19, 2026 | 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we will have an opt-in Day of Service where we encourage all families to come to campus to engage in meaningful service activities that will directly impact our local communities. Among our activities include: assembling hygiene kits for the Friendship House, preparing bagged lunches for Emmanuel Dining Room, creating cancer awareness bracelets for the Helen Graham Cancer Center, sorting clothes for the Clothing Bank, and writing letters for Letters Against Isolation and Sean's House. See this flyer for more activities! 

We are seeking donations and volunteers for our event. Please see the list below for the time slots for which we need volunteers and the items for which we are seeking donations. Please indicate the number of items donated by selecting the corresponding number of slots.

Donations can be dropped off in all divisions: Upper School (Mrs. Polk's desk), Middle School (bench down the hall by Mrs. Perkins' desk), Lower School (Ms. Lundberg's desk). Thank you in advance for your participation!
