- Yesterday on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we honored a legacy rooted in action. Dr. King reminded us that “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?”In that spirit, our team chose service. We spent the day preparing 250 sandwiches for @cathedralkitchen in Camden, an organization dedicated to addressing hunger and homelessness with dignity, compassion, and opportunity through meals, job training, and support services.Dr. King’s vision of justice was built on love in action. Giving back isn’t optional; it’s a responsibility. We’re proud to stand on his legacy by serving our community and living out our values of compassion, service, and doing the right thing, especially when it matters most., Donating Sandwiches to Camden's Cathedral Kitchen, 2026
