Celebrate Grandparents Day
#DoSomethingGrand and celebrate Grandparents Day this Sunday, September 7, and throughout the month of September! This year, we’re celebrating Stories From the Table. Inspired by the Emmy-nominated Netflix film NONNAS, our theme honors the food, family, and wisdom shared across generations. Whether you’re gathering around the table, swapping recipes, or simply sharing stories, it’s a chance to strengthen intergenerational connections in your family and community.
Learn more about this year’s theme and the #DoSomethingGrand activities you can do with your grandparents, grandfriends, grandchildren, or other loved ones of all ages. Celebrate on social media!
