Host a White House Youth Clean Energy Forum Viewing Party!
On Wed. Dec 2nd we have the opportunity to directly engage with the Obama Administration during its first-ever White House Youth Clean Energy Forum.
Top officials from Obama's Cabinet will address youth leaders from around the country and hear young people’s input about what their priorities should be for the Administration. You can become apart of the conversation by hosting a viewing party, engaging in the LIVE Facebook conversation, and inviting local media to cover your event to cover your response to this historic opportunity.
Below are the simple steps to host a viewing party, start by registering your event now!
