Day Of Pink: Down With Bullying

Where is your pink?

The International Day of Pink is a Canadian anti-bullying event held annually during the second week of April[[2]]. The event started when students David Shepherd and Travis Price saw another student, who was wearing a pink shirt, being bullied in their Central Kings Rural High School in Nova Scotia, and deciding to show support for the student by getting everyone at their school to wear pink the following day.[1]

The initiative inspired youth at Jer’s Vision who founded The International Day of Pink, an effort to support their peers internationally with resources and ways to make their schools safer.
