Connecticut’s Effort
Two Lights
On April 18, 2025, state commissions nationwide are calling for two lights to be displayed in every statehouse. They will be a reminder that the visual of a light shining out in the darkness on Revere’s ride is not just something that mattered then; it’s something that matters today, and for our collective tomorrow.
In Connecticut, we encourage community centers, municipal administrative buildings, museums, cultural centers, private residences, and any other organization that wishes to participate to display 2 lights on the night of Friday, April 18.
Day of Service
On April 19, 2025, states are promoting a day of service. We encourage towns and organizations to plan service projects that will allow the community to come together For the Common Good. Some project ideas include:
- Planting flowers or community gardens in public spaces
- Neighborhood clean-up or simple maintenance project (i.e., painting a fence)
- Holding a food & supply drive for a local food pantry
- Writing notes for residents of local care facilities
Involve Your Community
From two spotlights at a state capitol building beaming in the darkness to smaller displays at municipal buildings, and lights in individual homes, every citizen can participate.
We encourage participation at as many locations as possible – community centers, municipal and county administrative buildings, and private residences.
