1 2009 MLK Day of Service Justice Sunday National Continuum Request for Proposals

2 2009 MLK Justice Sunday National Continuum At A Glance The (NAFJ) invites you to launch a year of service on or within the week of the King federal holiday to make a difference during NAFJ is pleased to announce a Call To Service in honor of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.and the civil rights movement. Please visit our website to learn more: Through the generosity of the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and their support of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, NAFJ will award grants for the following specific areas of on-going volunteer service: 1. High visibility recruitment events and activities for mentors and youth most at-risk, particularly those with an incarcerated parent 2. Stimulate service-learning through the PEN OR PENCIL B.U.S Boycott Service Learning Program 3. Promote unique acts of unity and cooperation 4. Address poverty 5. Address beautification or provide on-going improvements along a M.L. King Street, Blvd., Drive, Avenue, or in cooperation with a school named in honor of Dr. King 6. Other unique ideas as proposed on a case by case basis. Share your ideas! The courage and sacrifices made by Dr. King and others less known during the civil rights movement was on-going and performed often at a tremendous sacrifice. Because of this, we have trademarked Justice Sunday (as a symbol of honor for Dr. King as a clergy, a call of action to secular service, and to honor the critical role played by institutions and groups of faith in the civil rights movement) and the entire year (a continuum beyond the holiday) as a time of service. While the causes for which they stood have achieved tremendous gains, in today s society, high incarceration rates and issues of crime and violence erode equality in new ways. Service which emphasizes quality education and which reduces violence and the number of youth and adults who enter prison is compatible with our mission and Dr. King s dream of a Beloved Community. Each year, our traditional theme is symbolic, A Charge to Keep We Have: Service Before (make your pledge on the Sunday prior to the holiday) and Beyond (begin on the holiday to serve for an entire year). The theme, taken in part from the title of a wellknown traditional hymn by Charles Wesley, suggests that it is our responsibility(charge) to serve mankind like Dr. King. Why use these approaches? Justice Sunday has become an annual benchmark to reemphasize volunteerism, civic participation, and public education while honoring Dr. King as an icon for social change. Volunteerism is critically needed to offset the overwhelming crisis we have in this country with crime, its causes, and its related consequences. Justice Sunday allows us to reach new stakeholders each year and to encourage people to think beyond the box in identifying how to combat these challenges. Make a commitment to perform service. Volunteer!!

Among priorities considered through subgrants awarded, we make strides in improving public safety and join the Corporation in making a difference in the lives of many youth who, without assistance, might find themselves at tremendous risk of entering the criminal justice system. Through this, we ask Americans to remember Dr. King and others who sacrificed by serving others making the holiday "A Day ON! Not a Day Off, through a pledge of service. The MLK Day of Service/Justice Sunday 2009 National Continuum honors Dr. King while creating a common agenda to which volunteers may be inspired to give their time for a minimum of nine months. For 2009, the common causes to which grants will be awarded must center around either or a combination of any of the five issues referenced in the overview (previous page) and restated under PRIORITY AREAS OF CONSIDERATION. Our goal will be to engage no less than 95,000 persons in volunteer service nationwide.
