Description: Free The Children is thrilled to be bringing the first American We Day to Seattle at Key Arena on March 27th. We Day is an event like no other. Tens of thousands of youth come together and are inspired by the world's most influential leaders in social change including inspirational speakers, celebrities, bands, local heroes and includes large-scale traditional media and social media integration. It is quickly becoming the single biggest highlight within the educational calendar among the hundreds of participating schools across Canada. Free for students to attend, tickets are earned through service and participation in the year long-program. The result is energy and enthusiasm for taking action that cannot be found anywhere else. www.weday.com
