National Village Day Social Media Toolkit

NATIONAL VILLAGE DAY is Thursday, February 15 2024!

With more recognition for villages comes more opportunities for funding, and the ability to help thousands more older adults thrive where they choose to live with meaningful connections to their communities. Let us advance the village movement so that millions more older adults can benefit.

This is an excellent opportunity to promote the work your village does to create communities of care and support for the older adults you serve. Use our social media tools below, incorporate National Village Day into existing events, and reach out to local media and elected officials about your activities.
