Leadership Summit and Lobby Day > Related Activities
All work and no play isn’t good for anyone when there is so much to do during Leadership Summit & Lobby Day!
Check out other ways to engage with your fellow participants:
Lights of Hope Across America: ACS CAN’s annual Lights of Hope ceremony features pictures and stories from every state in the country and is a visible reminder to Congress that there is more to do in the fight against cancer. In 2021, more than 50,000 bags will be dedicated in honor and memory of our family and friends.
ACS CAN 20th Anniversary Celebration: Please join us from 7:30-8:30pm ET on Wednesday, September 29 for this celebration open to all friends of ACS CAN! More details to come!
2021 Silent Auction: Peruse all of the fabulous offerings beginning September 22! Each tempting option was collected and/or donated by our staff and volunteers across the country. Need a little incentive to shop? Every dollar raised benefits ACS CAN: bid it up! (Auction closes after the 20th Anniversary Celebration on Wednesday, September 29.)
Cancer Story Corps The ACS CAN Cancer Story Corps is a new initiative to archive the stories, experiences and passion of our volunteers. Register your cancer story on our simple form and we might follow-up to schedule a one-on-one video interview with one of our staff! Together we will build our collection of individual and unique stories to help our education, outreach and advocacy efforts.
Submit your photos! We capture hundreds of photos of our advocates in action each year in Washington, DC. With this year’s virtual event, we still want to document and share the impressive training, strategizing and advocating you’re doing on behalf of cancer patients! Please use this guide for taking and submit photos throughout this year’s LS&LD!
Amplify our work! Remember when talking about @acscan to use the hashtags #CancerLobbyDay and #LightsOfHope to celebrate these important events! We’re looking forward to seeing many photos and selfies of ACS CAN volunteers from their own homes across the country! We encourage wearing the ACS CAN logo and/or wearing the colors red and blue. Please avoid wearing logos tied to programs like Cancer Votes, Relay For Life, Making Strides, etc. to avoid conflicts with our status as a 501(c)4, nonpartisan organization.
