Be sure to mark your calendars for this year's Purple Up Day, which will be celebrated on
April 11, 2025. All of us within the ARNG CYS Program invite you, your friends, your family and colleagues to show your support for all military kids by wearing purple and sharing your pictures online. Let's really show our military kids know how much we support them and value all they do as part of the military community.
Check with your local ARNG CYS Team, as some programs will be hosting additional Purple Up Day events and activities throughout the month.
