It was Pink Shirt Day on Feb. 26, and people all over Hope donned their best rose, fuschia, coral and salmon coloured clothes.
Pink Shirt Day is a day to acknowledge bullying and to work to create kindess. This year’s theme was Lift Each Other Up.
At Hope secondary school, the leadership class holds a Kindness Day and they had fun activities like cookie decorating for students and staff. At Boston Bar elementary, they held a ‘Be a Buddy, not a Bully’ walk around town.
Staff at companies and organizations around town joined in the efforts, including Pharmasave and the Read Right Society.
