Dear Drew Community,

Thank you to our students, families, staff, community members, clubs, and partner organizations who joined us for our MLK Day of Service – A Day ON, Not a Day Off. Your time, energy, and commitment to service made this day meaningful and impactful.

We are deeply grateful to the many clubs and organizations who showed up to serve alongside our students and families. Your presence and leadership helped bring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy of service, equity, and community to life.

Thank you to our PTA for providing refreshment and support throughout the day! We also extend our sincere thanks to our partner organizations for welcoming our volunteers and allowing us to support their important work:

• Frontline Response
• Legacy at East Lake
• Drew PTA
• East Lake YMCA
• East Lake Foundation
• Out of Hand of Theatre

Because of your partnership, our community was able to engage in hands-on service that strengthens East Lake and the greater Atlanta community.

Together, we demonstrated the power of collective action and what it truly means to serve others. Thank you for making this day one of purpose, connection, and impact.

With gratitude,

Dr. Juliet Karanja-Pinder
Senior Director of Student Services
