Share Your Sparkle Day Campaign..Start Brainstorming Ideas Today!

Share Your Sparkle Day is around the corner so today we challenge you to start thinking about what this event is all about. Here is my take on SYSD and hopefully you can take it and start brainstorming some ideas for what you are going to do on May 13th

We started Share Your Sparkle Day last year as a way to get schools more involved in spreading the SSS message and to reach kids who haven’t been able to participate in our workshops. This event is based off of one of our 5 Keys to Self-Worth – Making Your Mark. In the station that we have in our workshops, we talk about using our special talents to make an impact on others and then we put that into practice by helping out a partner organization, Project Valentine. Share Your Sparkle Day is essentially an extended practical version of that station. This is the chance for everyone to take a step back from being so focused on themselves and what they have going on and considering things that are much bigger. It's a time to think about others and figuring out what you can do to help them or to make an impact in their lives. It’s a moment to remember what you care about and how you are helping that cause. 

So this week, start thinking about what and who you care about. Start thinking about ways that you can make a difference.Remember that this is not about changing the world or even changing someone’s life. Even tiny things can make a huge impact.

Maybe a friend or family member is going through a tough time and need support.
Maybe your teacher has been working really hard and needs to hear some words of gratitude.
Maybe your peers are really stressing and need strength.
How can you help?
I know we talk about using our “special talents” in our workshops, but really this doesn’t even have to be about a talent that you have.
You have ears. Use them to listen to someone that needs to be heard.
You have a voice. Use it to speak for the voiceless.
You have a heart. Use it to spread love and kindness.
Let’s work together to leave a big trail of glitter!
