Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work™ Day
Virtual Event on Thursday, April 22, 2021
We’re very excited to announce that we’ve teamed up with VirtualJobShadow.com to create a content-rich virtual event for 2021!
Our 2021 theme is Boldly Moving Forward, and we’re leading by example with a re-imagined event well-suited for parents and teachers to attend with their kids and students from home, school or elsewhere in meaningful ways that will inspire attendees’ vision of their future lives!
Our virtual event on April 22 will include career introductions from hosts, interactive features and content representing several different career clusters including STEM, Business, the Arts, Health Science, Marketing and more! The program is designed to be both fun and educational, much as our prior events, but now even more accessible to all who wish to participate.
Everyone is welcome to enjoy the content at no charge, however a donation is appreciated at a suggested level of $5 per participant. Corporate and sponsor tax-deductible donations are critical to our mission. To learn how you can provide support at any level, please click here.

A Letter from The Executive Director
Greetings!
Welcome to the 2021 Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Day® Virtual Event. The Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Foundation, administrator of the program, is delighted to bring a new opportunity to create an enriching educational experience for our nation’s daughters and sons. Since 1993, individuals, families, organizations and workplaces have joined in the Day to expand opportunities and transform the lives of millions of girls and boys both nationally and internationally.
As plans are underway for this year’s event on April 22, 2021, we want to be part of moving forward towards a more positive future. TODASTW is planning to tap into technologies that have brought the world together during this time of increased isolation by offering a hybrid virtual option with both live and pre-recorded resources.
We have a program with content focused on children, parents and their teachers to allow them to participate from school, home or wherever they are. We are working various options, including live speakers, videos, showing different jobs, Q&A sessions, and interactive features.
We welcome engagement from companies and businesses that want to participate with sponsorship and workplace virtual tours. We also plan to provide resources for those companies that may be in a position to host in-person programs.
This new approach will allow us to reach more children no matter their location or access to their parents’ employers. As a result, we will be able to stay true to our mission of creating more equitable opportunities for children to experience different workplaces and career options.
If you’re ready, let’s begin Building Partnerships To Educate And Empower in order to shape the future for Boldly Moving Forward.
Warm Regards,
Carolyn McKecuen
Executive Director
