Pink Shirt Day - February 26 2020
The theme for this year’s Pink Shirt Day is “Lift each other up”, a simple but powerful message encouraging us to look beyond our differences and celebrate the things that make us unique. When we lift each other up, we see beyond the things that separate us and see instead the things that unite us as people; we can see how our differences are beautiful.
Kindness
A simple act of kindness can spark another. This short film is a great reminder that we should never judge others too quickly. Our differences are what often bring us together.
