2017 MLK Community Impact Day

Members of Epsilon Gamma Omega, Gamma Mu, Omicron Zeta, and

friends of

Epsilon Gamma

Omega joined

forces on

Monday, January

16, 2017 to

celebrate and, most importantly, honor the life and

legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This Community Impact Day, led by Soror Leteria

Moses Waters, Target III chairman, answered Dr.
King’s call, “What are you doing for others?”

Sorors served the Downtown Rescue Mission by serving as greeters, preparing food trays, serving consumers
during the breakfast, lunch, and dinner meals, and cleaned up after each meal. In addition, Sorors donated
gently used professional and church clothes to the Agape Store at the Downtown Rescue Mission.

The Downtown Rescue Mission is a nonprofit organization that serve the homeless community throughout
northern Alabama and southern Tennessee. Their mission is to “help bring hope and opportunity to men,

women and children who are physically and spiritually broken and
exhausted.”

Supporting the Downtown

Rescue Mission was definitely
a “day on” and not a “day
off”. It was also our humble

way to celebrate Dr. King

through service to all

mankind.
