International Day of Pink
Wednesday April 12th
Day of Pink represents authenticity and allyship, but most importantly, it represents the courage to take on all these actions. We believe when we wear pink on Day of Pink April 12th, 2023, we join the stance in having the courage to be yourself, to be kind, and so much more.
