About this Event
I WILL GRADUATE DAY, The largest youth Award and empowerment celebration of education is back! October 29th, 2024 @The Kings Theatre from 2pm-5:30pm! We’d like you to make an appearance at our I WILL GRADUATE Day celebration to help encourage our youth to “Be Great” for the 2024/2025 school year.
Participating schools will receive a College and Career Readiness 6-week Curriculum leading up to I WILL GRADUATE DAY. The curriculum will give students the tools they need to stay on task and bring their A-game to the new school year. We will celebrate the completion of the program with the largest super-charged youth empowerment event NYC has ever seen.
On I WILL GRADUATE DAY thousands of students from across the city from grades 7-12 will take the I WILL GRADUATE pledge to declare their commitment to graduate from high school and college. We keep students engaged by bringing in high-profile guest speakers who offer life lessons and experiences. The day also includes surprise appearances by some of their favorite celebrities, musical acts, and performers to spotlight the day's important theme, leaving students re-energized, re-focused, and re-committed to their education.
Since its inception in 2006, I WILL GRADUATE DAY NYC has been spearheaded by educational/community leaders, celebrities, professional athletes, and high-profile executives. On that day schools across the city will engage in activities, events, workshops, and pep rallies to encourage students to take charge of their educational journey! Previous attendees included: Eric Adams (Mayor of New York City), Letitia James (Attorney General of New York) Daymond John (Star of ABC's Shark Tank), French Montana (music artist), Omar Epps (actor), Wyclef Jean (music icon), Remy Ma (music artist), Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (music artist), Fivio Foreign (music artist), The Breakfast Club (NYC Radio Show), Lala Anthony (American TV personality), and much more!
