Presidential Leadership Scholars 10-Year Anniversary Alumni Toolkit

The Presidential Leadership Scholars Program is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, and we need your help in marking this incredible milestone. We hope that you will share about the impact of the program and your experience in PLS with your personal and professional network. This page will be updated throughout the year with resources to help you celebrate #PLSat10. Read below for sample language and helpful details.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

  • Copy and paste the below suggested social media posts, or develop your own customized posts to share about the impact of the program, your favorite memories from your time in PLS, the relationships you built, etc.
  • Add the #PLSat10 hashtag to your posts
  • Tag @PLSprogram in your posts on X/Instagram and Presidential Leadership Scholars on LinkedIn and engage with our posts via your personal or organizational accounts.

WHEN

We invite you to share your reflections throughout the year as we mark the 10th anniversary of PLS and the program’s decade of impact. Some dates to consider:

  • June 2025: June will mark 10 years since the first PLS class graduated from the program, and the 10th annual PLS class will join the alumni network.

  • Oct. 10, 2025: The PLS alumni celebration will take place in Washington, DC. This is a great time to reflect on the relationships and connections made through the program, celebrate how far the program has come, and how PLS has impacted you both personally and professionally.

We encourage you to post throughout 2025, as we hope #PLSat10 will be a continuous drumbeat on social media to reflect on the past decade of the program and the years of impact to come!
