Thousands of people are wearing purple today to honour the young lives that have been lost due to hate. Wednesday October 20 has been designated as Spirit Day, to remind and bring to light the suicides due to hate against gay's.
In Australia, this has already occured, and most, if not all, of our Australian team members friends and family wore purple in one way or another. A shirt, a ribbon, a flower in your hair, a bracelet, nail polish... anything! Wear purple, and say NO to hate.
The idea was started by a Canadian Teenager and has spread worldwide (Join the Facebook event). One person. Remember that one person can make a difference; one person can make a change. Every little thing that you do can and will affect others.
So stand up, be strong, and be proud of who you are and what you have to offer the world.
