WE Day is an annual series of stadium-sized youth empowerment events organized by WE Charity (formerly known as Free The Children), a Canadian charity founded by brothers Marc and Craig Kielburger. WE Day events host tens of thousands of students and celebrate the impact they have made on local and global issues[2]. Students earn their tickets by participating in the WE Schools program, a year-long service learning program run by WE Charity.[3] Each event features a lineup of social activists, speakers and musical performances.[4]

Background

The first WE Day was held in October 2007 at the Ricoh Coliseum in Toronto, Canada. Since then, the program has expanded to include annual events in 17 cities in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom, including Vancouver, London, Chicago and Seattle. The event has featured speeches by global leaders such as Al Gore, Elie Wiesel, Martin Luther King III[5], Kofi Annan[6] and performances by artists such as Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, Lilly Singh[7], Jennifer Hudson and Nelly Furtado.[8]

WE Charity does not charge an admission fee for school groups or individual students to attend WE Days. To earn entry, schools must pledge to engage in one local and one international effort

WE Day is a free event for all students because it has corporate sponsors. To earn entry, schools must pledge one local and one international difference-making effort to pursue over the school year. WE Charity provides a limited number of tickets to each school and lets the schools decide how to choose which students attend. As of 2014, WE Days take place in 14 cities worldwide, with more than 200,000 students from 8,000 schools in attendance.[9][10]

According to the WE Charity website WE Days are funded through dedicated cash and in-kind corporate donations. No program donations from youth or private individuals are used to fund WE Day.[11]

WE Day has one of the largest nonprofit Facebook pages in the world, with over 3.5 million likes.[12] The associated "1 like = 1 dollar" fundraising campaign, where the event's sponsors donated one dollar for each like on the WE Day page, raised over $2 million for Free The Children.[13]

WE Schools

WE Day is connected to a year-long service-learning program delivered by WE Charity, called "WE Schools" (previously the WE Act program).[14] Schools that participate in WE Day are asked to undertake one local and one global action for change during the course of the school year. Admission to WE Day event is free of charge, and in return schools are asked to follow through on their commitments to these actions.

WE Schools campaigns cover a range of social issues, such as "WE Scare Hunger", in which participants collect canned food items for their local food banks each Halloween,[15] and "WE Are Silent", a vow of silence in which participants stay silent for 24 hours in solidarity with children overseas whose rights are not upheld.[16]

During the 2016-2017 school year, youth involved in the WE Schools program supported 7,221 organizations, collected 2,555,483 pounds of food, raised $24.2m, and volunteered for 8,837,826 hours

92% of Canadian and American teachers in the program report that their students feel a stronger connection to their local community and 89% report that their students are more likely to stand up for others who are discriminated against.[17]

In the 2017/2018 school year, over 4,000 UK schools and groups volunteered more than 860,000 hours and collected over 115,000 kilos of food for local foodbanks through the WE Schools program.[18]

WE Day Connect

In 2018, WE Charity launched WE Day Connect, a digital webcast intended to bring the event into classrooms and connect students in remote areas.[19] Via Skype, students view a 90-minute interactive show, with programming similar to the live stadium events, including speeches by activists, celebrities and student leaders who have volunteered on various causes.[20]
