Calling All Graduates: Join #PoPUpGraduation

  • April 17, 2020

With graduation ceremonies being canceled amidst such difficult and uncertain times, we at PoP want to make sure our graduates get the recognition they deserve by launching #PoPUpGraduation! Whether you’re a grad or someone who loves a grad, there are several ways you can get involved in graduation season with PoP.

Here’s how you can join in on the celebration while sharing the gift of education:


1. Are you missing your graduation ceremony? Share your graduation moments and show us how you’re celebrating at home with the hashtag #PoPUpGraduation and tag us so we can celebrate with you! We’re @pencilsofpromise on Instagram and TikTok, and @pencilsofpromis on Twitter.

2. Donate your graduation and support global education. Ask your friends and family to make a donation to Pencils of Promise in your name. You’ll receive an exclusive digital printable PoP Diploma in your name and a shoutout in our Instagram Stories so you can get the props you deserve!

3. Purchase a custom 18-carat gold “Promise Pencil” diamond necklace from our partners at Tzuri. Tzuri has provided an exclusive reduced price for the PoP family, and your gift has an exponential impact. Not only will you have a beautiful item for your grad, but a portion of proceeds from each necklace goes toward Pencils of Promise to support education for all. Honor the graduate in your life and support access to quality education—including water, sanitation and hygiene education—to children around the globe.

4. Join the conversation online with #PoPUpGraduation #WordsofWisdom on Twitter and Instagram! Share your #WordsofWisdom for the class of 2020. What’s the best advice you’ve ever received? Share it on social with the hashtag #PoPUpGraduation and tag us!

#PoPUpGraduation provides the opportunity to do social good while staying safe and social distancing. Though physically apart, we stand together stronger than ever, in support of graduates and education across the globe.
