On August 21st, we’re asking American
families to tune in for the most important conversation they’ll have all
year! Join us for a one-hour, commercial-free program,
We Day, and explore
today’s greatest social issues – bullying, body image, mental illness,
ability, literacy, inner-city violence, environment and so much more.
We’re hoping you will help us spread the word by sharing the
We Day PSA video. We Day will be airing
commercial-free on ABC on August 21st at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT.
As part of the broadcast we’ve got a number of
outstanding young people across America who are making a difference in
their respective communities and whose stories will be part of our
prime-time special, like:
Ezra Frech, 9 years old (California) – Ezra
was born with a congenital anomaly resulting in the amputation of his
left leg and the relocation of his toe to his hand to serve as a thumb,
Ezra embraces his differences with the ultimate
goal to participate in the Paralympics.
Ally Del Monte, 17 years old (Connecticut) –
Ally’s story centers on her personal journey from bullying and
depression to inspiring her peers to #BeBrave. Her blog Losergurl is
helping change her life and the lives of other young
Americans dealing with bullying.
Jessica Carscadden, 11 years old (California) -
Jessica lived the first five years of her life in an orphanage with
nothing to call her own. Born with a facial abnormality, Jessica was
abandoned at birth in China and adopted by an American family at five.
Jessica started a project called “We Care Bears”
with an aim to provide local police and fire departments with stuffed
animals for kids they encounter who may be scared or injured. To date,
they have provided more the 1,300 bags of stuffed animals to first
responders.
