“Apple has dedicated its entire [U.S.] homepage today to commemorate Martin Luther King Jr. Day,” Chris Hauk reports for MacTrast. “”
“An image of the fallen civil rights leader is accompanied by this quote from Dr. King: ‘Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?”” Hauk reports. “To commemorate the holiday last year, Apple encouraged its employees to volunteer, and offered to donate $50 to charity for each hour of employee volunteer work completed.”
Hauk reports, “The third Monday in January was designated as Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 1983 to honor Dr. King’s birthday, which is January 15th. Dr. King was assassinated on April 4, 1968.”
