CELEBRATE! Choose Love is an 8-hour virtual day of inspiration, entertainment, and FUN in honor of Jesse Lewis’ birthday. Open to everyone, the all-day virtual zoom event. FUNdraiser will be hosted by Scarlett Lewis, Jesse’s mother, and Dawn O’Brien, a Choose Love Ambassador from Hawaii and beloved radio personality, and will feature hours of inspiration, fun, and entertainment for all ages to raise funds for our the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement.

We will feature inspirational thoughts from Scarlett; interviews; a concert by Nashville-based singer-songwriter Doug Allen; meditations and other mental health practices; videos showing Choose Love in action; uplifting performances by students; and much more. We will also be sharing helpful social and emotional skills, tools and practical advice that you can use to live a happy, fulfilled life. The pillars of the Choose Love formula (Courage + Gratitude + Forgiveness + Compassion-in-Action = Choosing Love) will be threaded throughout the hours.

There are various ways that you can Choose Love and be part of the event. You can donate an item for our online silent auction or bid on something you like; you can be a sponsor or offer a donation; you can send us a fun video of a dance, a song, or anything that shows how you Choose Love in your life; or you can register for the event; or you can just make Choosing Love part of your daily life.

Experience our Movement in motion as we celebrate Jesse’s courageousness, the power of love, and the importance of coming together as a community. With a little help from our Choose Love ambassadors, partners, educators, parents and students, it will be a spectacular event that honors such a special, fun-loving boy.
