Pink Shirt Day ~

Pink Shirt Day is Wednesday, February 28th.  The focus for 2018 is Cyberbullying.  

In today's digital world, it can be impossible to escape online bullying, whether it takes the shape of harassment, spreading rumours, sharing embarrassing information or threats.  This year, Pink Shirt Day is encouraging others to combat cyberbullying by thinking twice before posting  something negative, and instead using the internet to spread kindness -because we know that Nice Needs No Filter!
