Free the Children is the world’s largest network of children helping children through education.  At 60 million Girls, we are honoured to have collaborated with them, in the Maasai Mara, Kenya, and in Udaipur, India.

One Free the Children’s many inspiring projects is We Day, an event created to empower young leaders to work together to create a more compassionate local and global community.

This year, in addition to the We Days in cities across Canada (including We Day Montreal on February 29th,) National We Day also takes place in Montreal, on March 1st. Particpants and speakers at these events include Jesse Jackson, Martin Sheen, Nikki Yanofsky, Justin Trudeau, Sophie Gregoire-Trudeau, Radio Radio, and of course, Craig and Marc Kielburger, founders of Free the Children.

If you’re not attending the event, we strongly encourage you to gather in groups (the larger, the better,) and watch We Day live online!
