The Guiding Star Challenge
Introducing Guiding Star and the Guiding Star Challenge 🌟
We’re so excited to share Guiding Star, a beautiful new song created by the band I Draw Slow in partnership with the Coalition of Irish Immigration Centers (CIIC). This song conveys a powerful message of belonging, love, and community.
Just as our centers are guiding stars, offering support, connection, and care when it’s needed most, we believe you are a guiding star too.Â
Now we’d love for YOU to join us:
✨ Listen to Guiding Star
✨ Share this message of hope and belonging
✨ And if you’re inspired, take the #GuidingStar Challenge!
Sing it. Dance it. Remix it. Paint it.
Make it yours, and help us shine a light together.
Be sure to tag us and I Draw Slow and use #IrishInMotion, #GuidingStar, #IDrawSlow, #IrishCoalition, and #GuidingStarChallenge, so we can celebrate your creativity and share it far and wide.
