To celebrate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and take part of the MLK Day of Service, students from UW-Bothell and Cascadia helped with projects around Bothell on Saturday Feb 16th.
Highlights of note:
200 volunteers including staff, students and faculty at Cascadia and UWB planted 500 seedlings at Juanita Woodlands; removed yards of blackberry brambles at Blythe Park; visited three senior centers in Bothell; assisted a foster care home with yard and house chores; donated 200 food items to Greater Bothell Parent Resource Center; decorated 100 additional food bags; wrote messages in 75 cards for Children's Hospital; did prep work for the mural that will be completed at Maywood Hills Elementary by Cascadia art students later this quarter; and participated in MLK Day reflection activities. Also, on day of the MLK Holiday, 20 people gathered to participate in dialogue with Bothell Mayor Lamb and attend the march through downtown Bothell.
