Pink Shirt Day (February 22)

Today is Pink Shirt Day.

Pink Shirt Day was inspired by moments of kindness, empathy and understanding that can mean so much to children impacted by bullying. For bullied kids, it can be hard to know where to turn. But a helping and supportive hand can make a world of difference. Remember that whether it’s sending a check-in text, calling out bullying behaviour when you see it, or simply offering your support, there are so many ways we can all help and connect with people being bullied.

Wearing a pink shirt on this day symbolizes commitment to creating a workplace and community free of bullying. It is a simple yet powerful way to show your support for this cause. Let us all take a moment to reflect on the impact of our words and actions, and to consider how we can make a positive difference in the lives of those around us.

We ask that all staff members be aware of their behavior towards their colleagues and take action to prevent and stop any instances of bullying. Thank you for your cooperation and support in creating a safe and respectful workplace for everyone.

Let’s lift each other up this Pink Shirt Day, and all year round!
