More local students than ever support Pink Shirt Day

Tomorrow is Pink Shirt Day, a day when everyone is encouraged to wear pink and take a stand against bullying.

Crime Prevention is selling pink shirts with proceeds going toward anti-bullying initiatives in our community.

Cheryl George, Public Education Events Coordinator for Crime Prevention says on Wednesday everyone is encouraged to wear their pink shirt, take a selfie with classmates,  coworkers or friends, and post it to social media using the hashtag #PinkItForward or #PinkShirtDay.

She says there are even more schools involved this year than in the past, as well as city departments and different organizations like Odyssey House and Sunrise House.
