Let Kindness Grow

Pink Shirt Day Activity

For Families

About the Program

This year’s Pink Shirt Day theme is “Let’s Grow Kindness.” We’re participating by making bracelets that celebrate, affirm and empower both ourselves, and the kindness that we have to offer others.

This is a drop-in program for families with children of all ages and their caregiver(s).

About Pink Shirt Day 2025

This year is all about cultivating a community of kindness. Just like tending to a garden, together we can each help nurture a sense of belonging where we live, work, and go to school. It all starts with small gestures— a kind word, an offer of support or understanding. If we plant enough, pretty soon, more will be sprouting up all around us! By sprinkling these seeds of empathy and compassion, we can work towards a world without bullying and "Let Kindness Grow" through all of our community gardens.
