BC Place glows in support of Pink Shirt Day
February 27th, 2019
BC Place will glow pink on Wednesday, February 27th, for Pink Shirt Day.
Bullying is a major problem in our schools, workplaces, homes, and online. Pink Shirt Day aims to raise awareness of these issues, as well as raise funds to support programs that foster children’s healthy self-esteem. Since 2008, net proceeds of over $1.8 million have been distributed to support youth anti-bullying programs in British Columbia and throughout Western Canada. In 2018 alone, the initiative was able to support programs that impacted more than 59,000 youth and children.
