This Pink Shirt Day, letâs get people talking about how we can say ânoâ to bullying behaviours and say âyesâ to encouraging, supporting and uplifting one another. February 26 is a powerful day to highlight the importance of compassion and how kind words and small actions can have meaningful impacts in our communities, all year long.
For every like, comment, or share on the Pink Shirt Day #LiftEachOtherUpđ Donation Posts shared on February 26, Swoop will donate $1 to support anti-bullying programs in partnership with CKNW Kidsâ Fund.
*Maximum donation of $20,000.
Since 2008, Pink Shirt Day has raised more than $2.3 million to support youth anti-bullying programs throughout Western Canada. Canadians are encouraged to wear a pink shirt on Feb. 26 to send a strong message that we care. This important day can start conversations which can be a big step towards healing and helping.
Pink Shirt Day has grown from a small group of Canadians to an internationally recognized movement, seeing global partners come together every February, to affirm that we, as a society, will not tolerate bullying anywhere. Canadians are encouraged to join Swoop and our fellow #PinkShirtDay partners in practicing kindness and wearing pink to symbolize that bullying doesnât belong in our communities.
