Pink Shirt Day
What is pink shirt day?
Anti-Bullying Day is a day when people wear a pink shirt to symbolize a stand against bullying. It originated in Canada and is now celebrated on various dates around the world.
Why do we have pink shirt day?
Celebrated annually around the globe, Pink Shirt Day began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new year 10 student was harassed for wearing pink. We've been celebrating Pink Shirt Day in Aotearoa since 2009 and the campaign grows stronger and larger every year.
