NPLD for Site Managers

Register your event and find the tools you need to organize and promote it

Thank you to all the NPLD site managers for your hard work and dedication in making this year’s events a success!

Thousands of volunteers came together on Saturday, September 28th, to make a meaningful impact across the country. As we gather preliminary results, we need your help to capture the full scope of these efforts. If you hosted an NPLD event, please share your results through Google Forms or SurveyMonkey to contribute to the national tally.

We know some of you were forced to cancel your events due to the hurricane. We hope to support you if you need to reschedule and, most importantly, that you and your loved ones are safe.
