ALABAMA, USA — Light up your porch to say thank you to health care workers.
Governor Kay Ivey is asking Alabamians to honor health care heroes for their efforts in fighting the COVID-19 virus by leaving their porch lights on every Friday in October and showing their appreciation at school sporting events.
“We’re lighting up Friday nights for our heroes. I’m continually amazed at the dedication of health care employees who work all year long to care for us and who during tough times, such as COVID, only seem to work harder,” Gov. Ivey said. “We owe them a huge debt of gratitude for the countless hours they’ve spent at hospitals, clinics and other facilities saving lives and helping to prevent the spread of this virus.”
Light up Friday Nights is a partnership between the Governor’s Office, the Alabama Hospital Association, the Alabama Department of Education, the Council for Leaders in Alabama’s Schools, the Alabama Independent School Association, the Alabama High School Athletic Association and School Superintendents of Alabama.
