Service to others is a hallmark of the University of Houston-Downtown, and GatorServe is a UHD tradition. GatorServe brings together UHD students, staff, faculty, friends, families, and community partners to complete service projects for the two National Days of Service, one in remembrance of 9/11, the other to commemorate Martin Luther King Jr.
For the upcoming National Day of Service in memory of MLK’s tremendous life and legacy, UHD students, staff, and faculty will volunteer at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 18, 2025, at Moody Park in partnership with City of Houston Volunteer Initiatives Program and the Parks and Recreation Department. Together, we will work to restore the park, especially cleaning up the trash deposited when the bayou floods.
