Tomorrow is Pink Shirt Day, a time for us to come together across ON to take a stand against bullying.
The idea started with a simple act of kindness—two students wearing pink to support a peer who was being bullied. Today, it has grown into a massive movement. Whether you are at school, at work, or out in the Durham Region community, wearing pink is a way to show that we choose kindness, empathy, and respect.
Why it Matters
Bullying can happen to anyone, and its effects can last a lifetime. By wearing pink, we send a clear message:
- We support those who have been targeted.
- We commit to being "upstanders" rather than bystanders.
- We want to make our community a safer, more inclusive place for everyone.
Get Involved
If you don't have a pink shirt handy, any pink accessory—like a scarf, hat, or pin—works too! Let’s fill the streets of Oshawa with pink tomorrow to show that we are united against bullying.
Quick Tip: If you're sharing photos of your team or family in pink tomorrow, feel free to use the hashtag #PinkShirtDay so others in ON can see the support!
