SevenDays is a challenge for young and old, to embrace diversity across races, religions and cultures.
SevenDays provides opportunities to encourage all people to increase kindness through knowledge, mindset, and behaviors. They accomplish this with their SevenDays® themed experiences held in April 2022.
