#My2024 Bonus Mission—Celebrations! Oct 9-10, 2024
It’s October 10, 2024—the anniversary of the game-changing My2024 event. You can trace so much of what’s good and important in your life back to the visions that took shape then.
You’re on your way to a celebration of the anniversary. People across the country are meeting in all kinds of venues to toast a decade of extraordinary progress, building on seeds that YOU planted in 2014. Your mission is to get the word out: make the celebration as big in public awareness as it is in your heart.
Tell the world about your victory celebration in 2024 and how it builds on one of your favorite ideas from #My2024.
DO IT FAST: Tweet where you are and what you’re celebrating in 2024.
For example:
Helping cut the ribbon at the dedication ceremony for the Transgender Medical Center at Ohio State University #MY2024
DO IT WITH MEDIA: Create a video message of you—and maybe your friends—celebrating together in 2024.
For example:
Take three friends out to dinner and tell us how each of you has applied a lesson from the LGBTQ movement to a new social justice issue in 2024.
DO IT WITH IMAGINATION: Surprise the world. Skywrite your story. Start a flash mob. Or take your celebration to the street with signs and placards.
For example:
Deliver balloons, chocolate, and a big sign to your favorite television station to congratulate them on the great progress they’ve made in portraying diversity of sexual orientation in ALL their programming in 2024.
Post your 2024 celebrations to social media—Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Tumblr—with the #My2024 hashtag.
Join the conversation!
About My2024
For 10 days in October, the Institute for the Future, the Arcus Foundation, and more than 35 partner organizations from across the United States like GLAAD, The Trevor Project, and The Transgender Law Center have teamed up for My2024, an online event to imagine our lives as LGBTQ people in ten years.
My2024 taps the passion and wisdom of our national LGBTQ community leaders, social entrepreneurs, change-makers, and citizens to contribute to the My2024 Declaration—a call-to-action for the next decade of the LGBTQ movement.
