What an amazing experience.  Today I had the opportunity to attend my first ever We Day.  What is We Day?  Well, I'm so glad you asked.  We Day is the movement of our time, empowering a generation of young global citizens through an inspirational event and a year-long educational initiative called We Act.

We Day is like an amazing concert put on by your favorite artists and a motivational confrence for students BUT you can't buy a ticket - you earn it via We Act....take at least one local and global action.

To top it all off there will be a We Day television special on August 21 on ABC.  It was filmed at the Chicago We Day event, the one I got to go to, and I promise you won't want to miss it.  The artist included:

Common,  Jennifer Hudson, Day Selena Gomez, Tyrese Gibson,  Martin Sheen,  “Magic” Johnson , The Band Perry,  Colbie Caillat, Babyface, Rico Rodriguez,  Raini Rodriguez,  Hannah Simone, Marlee Matlin,  Lt. Colonel Eileen Collins, Kweku Mandela and so many more.  You can read all about it HERE

I've never been to anything like it and I plan on working hard to talk them into bringing a We Day to San Diego and I know our schools would support it.

Ohhh, and I had a little fan girl moment!!
