Did Your School Organize a Dia de Portugal Event?
Dia de Portugal’s spirit includes opportunities to teach descendants of Portuguese immigrants about the contributions of Portuguese–Americans to our country. Fostering and strengthening awareness of the Portuguese heritage is the main purpose of the Dia de Portugal organizing committee. To that end, schools that organize a Dia de Portugal event at their school and have a Portuguese club may be eligible to receive funds for their club!

Suggestions for events that can be held at schools include:

  • Organizing a Dia de Portugal Day that can include folkloric dancing, food, and more
  • A Dia de Portugal Week, with daily announcements highlighting contributions by Portuguese–Americans
  • Organizing a flag raising ceremony to fly the Portuguese and American flags on June 10th
