GLOBAL LIVESTREAM 

CHARACTER DAY

Character Day was a global day that ran annually for 6 years, from 2014-2019.

 

Each Character Day, millions around the globe in schools, companies, and homes gathered to watch short films, engage with discussion materials, and join a global livestream conversation about character -- the science behind how to develop strengths like grit, gratitude, self-control, curiosity, and creativity -- and why these strengths lead to more meaning, purpose and happiness. Character Day grew, in its final year, to having over 200,000 groups in 128 countries and all 50 states. We told everyone: we provide the films. We provide the discussion kits. You  create an event that works for you. Any size. Anywhere in the world.

Character Day was supported entirely by visionary foundations.

A middle school Character Day "bravery flashmob"

at Sarasota Military Academy, Florida.

Refinery29 Headquarters in New York City, like many companies,

held a Character Day happy hour.

Hong Kong made Character Day a city-wide event,

 with billboards across busses and streets, and government involvement.
