NEWS AND UPDATES

The John and Lillian Miles Lewis Foundation’s LAUNCH18 program has officially expanded to Springfield, Virginia with a voter registration rally at the only high school named after Congressman John Lewis.

Voter Registration Rallies were held at Druid Hills, Cedar Grove, McNair and Columbia, bringing students together for voter registration, civic education and hands-on preparation for becoming first-time voters.

Students from Cedar Grove High School, Drew Charter School, Druid Hills High School, and John Lewis Invictus Academy participated in the multi-city trip designed to broaden their understanding of the ongoing fight for civil rights and voting rights.

Voter registration rallies at Cedar Grove H.S., Drew Charter and Druid Hills High School the first week of February show students can be engaged even when there isn't an election around the corner.

We launched our 2025 efforts with Civic Engagement / Voter Registration rallies at Cedar Grove High School, Charles R. Drew Charter School, and Druid Hills High School.
