MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota Martin Luther King Jr. Day is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service. In honor of MLK, a group of Minnesotans got together over Zoom to sew masks for donation.
The sew-a-thon on Monday is one of many virtual events the group, MN Masks On, has held since forming in March of last year. So far, they have provided 20,750 masks to patients at Hennepin County Medical Center s Emergency Department.
