All Okanagan Boys & Girls Clubs
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010 - All Day!

The annual Anti-Bullying PINK SHIRT DAY is Wednesday April 14th. Join the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs as we take a stand against Bullying.

Clubs will be participating in special bullying awareness activities and Pink T-shirts will be available for sale. Club members can take part in our Pink Shirt Day Poster Contest to win great prizes!

JOIN US in taking a stand against bullying by wearing pink on April 14th to work, school, or on your daily routine!

For more information on Pink Shirt Day activities or to purchase your Pink Shirt Day T-shirt, please contact Miriam at 250.762.3914 or email mking@boysandgirlsclubs.ca to order.

Pink Shirt Day was originally inspired by two incredible Nova Scotia high school students, whom with their teenage friends organized a high-school protest to wear pink in sympathy with a Grade 9 boy who was being bullied. They took a stand against bullying when they protested against the harassment of a new Grade 9 student by distributing pink T-shirts to all the boys in their school.
