The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service invites all Americans to volunteer on Martin Luther King, Jr. National Day of Service, particularly on public lands and waters.

The only federal holiday (this year on January 20) designated as a national day of service, the holiday encourages all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities.
