Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service
Monday, January 20, 2025
The weather outside was icy, but the atmosphere inside was warm and friendly. In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley sponsored a mini cultural fest for elementary school age children. Groups representing the diverse population of the Cedar Valley displayed information about their heritage and had wonderful activities for the students. For example, the students could learn a Bosnian folk dance, make origami animals, construct a rain stick, or participate in many other activities. The Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley believes that our diversity makes us strong. We want all children to learn this important lesson.
Pack The Dome 2025
Together the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley, Northeast Iowa Food Bank, and UNI Office of Community Engagement thank the 1,550 volunteers who joined Pack the Dome on MLK Day. These volunteers united in a powerful display of compassion, teamwork, and commitment to ending childhood hunger packing an incredible 75,736 bags for the Northeast Iowa Food Bank's BackPack Program.
Let the VCCV help you find more ways to get involved in volunteering at the Northeast Iowa Food Bank today!
