In honor or Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - deemed "A Day On, Not a Day
Off"- six AmeriCorps National Direct and VISTA members, currently
serving at Habitat for Humanity of Dane County, prepared and served a
meal at the Ronald McDonald House in Madison, WI.

Members prepared a meal for twenty people which included a chicken
enchilada casserole, Spanish rice, broccoli, rolls, and clementines.

The Ronald McDonald House provides a "home away from home" for
families whose children are undergoing treatment at Madison area
health facilities.  It allows families to stay together during an
often very difficult time.  For more information about the Ronald
McDonald House, please visit their website.

Since 1994, the Martin Luther King Jr. Federal Holiday has been named
a national day of service - "a day on, not a day off".  To honor the
work that Dr. King did to advance equality, social justice, and
opportunity for all, Americans are encouraged to get out and serve
their communities.  To learn more about MLK Day or how you can serve,
