Pink shirts in support of an annual anti-bullying campaign are on sale now at London Drugs.

Proceeds from sales of the $9.80 T-shirts will support Boys and Girls Clubs across Western Canada. Last year, the campaign raised more than $100,000 for the cause.

This year, Pink Shirt Day is Wednesday, Feb. 29. In its fifth year, the effort was started after two students in Nova Scotia encouraged their classmates to wear pink after witnessing another student get bullied for the choice.

It is estimated that someone is bullied on a playground in Canada every seven minutes.

Boys and Girls Clubs work to foster self-esteem, social engagement, academic success, inclusion, acceptance, respect for self and others and connection to community – deemed key elements in bullying prevention.

Pink shirts are available at London Drugs locationgs including in South Surrey’s Peninsula Village (15355 24 Ave.) and Morgan Crossing (2443 161A St.).
