First Lady Michelle Obama is taking her Reach Higher initiative up a notch. Today, she kicked off the “Better Make Room” campaign at the White House. And she invited Ciara and Angela Simmons to attend. Peep the pics and a few funny videos we rounded up inside….
All positive vibes, uplifting words and encouragement!
First Lady Michelle Obama launched an amazing new campaign to empower young people to take control of their education and power their dreams. As a part of her Reach Higher Initiative, FLOTUS kicked off her new public awareness campaign, Better Make Room today at the White House, inviting 20+ social media, business, and nonprofit partners for the launch.
The campaign targets Generation Z (young people 14-19) to celebrate education, change the national conversation, and reach students directly where they are and give them a space to create content while also navigating the college-going process, according to the White House.
Our fabulous First Lady expressed her vision for the initiative saying,
“We want to create a space where young people can engage with each other. Where they can inspire each other to complete their education beyond high school. We want to make room for their stories, their dreams and their achievements. Right now, that space doesn’t really exist in pop culture. It's about turning the culture of celebrity upside down so that we don’t just have kids worshiping celebrities, but we also have celebrities honoring kids who are working hard and achieving their goals. That's where we're going to shine the spotlight on those kids and their stories."
Nice!
