Common card · No. 444803

Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day, sometimes termed Take Your Child to Work Day, is an annual event in the United States where parents are encouraged to take their children to work and teach them about what they do. It was established in 1993 by the Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization. It is the successor to Take Our Daughters to Work Day, which aimed to make girls visible in the workplace; it was expanded to include boys in 2003. In the U.S., it occurs on the fourth Thursday in April every year. In 2024, the event was taken over by Junior Achievement and rebranded as Take A Child To Work Day and Beyond. In 2018, more than 37 million Americans at over 3.5 million workplaces participated.
