Lights On Afterschool is a nationwide event celebrating afterschool programs and their important role in the lives of children, families, and communities. A partnership with the Afterschool Alliance around Lights On Afterschool can help corporate leaders demonstrate their concern for today’s working families and the future success of our children.
The first Lights On Afterschool celebration, a project of the Afterschool Alliance, was launched in October 2000 with celebrations in 1,200 communities all over the country. Today, more than 7,500 Lights On Afterschool rallies are held annually, attracting 1 million Americans.
Check out the Afterschool Alliance annual event’s page. The Afterschool Alliance has a great event planning kit available online which will walk you through the process and makes it easy to take part in the celebrations.
Check out our very own Lights On Afterschool Event held in early October celebrating afterschool professionals.
