You Belong Shirts for Pink Shirt Day Support Advocacy Work

As Pink Shirt Day approaches on February 28th, Advocacy Canada is excited to unveil its limited-edition You Belong shirts, specially designed to promote inclusivity, diversity, and the power of speaking out. Pink Shirt Day is a significant annual event that stands against bullying and discrimination, fostering an environment where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Advocacy Canada’s You Belong pink shirts, with a design created by Kelowna Indigenous queer artist Sarah Jones are not just a fashion statement, but a powerful symbol of support for the 2SLGBTQ community on Pink Shirt Day. The shirts include the powerful nsyilxcen phrase kʷu yʕayʕát kʷuʔ čn̓k̓ʷɬn̓xiʔm̓ which translates to we all join in together / we are all part of it together.

The funds raised through the sale of these shirts for Pink Shirt Day Kelowna will directly support Advocacy Canada’s initiatives to uplift and unite the voices of the 2SLGBTQ community in Kelowna and across Canada. By participating in Pink Shirt Day with Advocacy Canada, individuals contribute to creating a world where diversity is celebrated, and everyone feels a sense of belonging.
