Go Purple for Spirit Day October 18

Gary Carnivele October 1, 2018

October is Bullying Prevention Month and Thursday, Oct 18 is #SpiritDay, a tradition started in Oct 2011 after a number of LGBTQ young people were lost to bullying & suicide. To visibly let our LGBTQ youth know they are loved & supported by a community that cares, we wear purple (the color for Spirit on the rainbow flag) and, since 2012, we’ve been making a big, beautiful, community collage!

Visit our website for full details on these 3 ways you can get involved this year and show support for LGBTQ youth:

  1. “Go purple” for #SpiritDay, Thursday, October 18!
  2. Drop by our Napa or Santa Rosa purple-party open houses on October 18!
  3. Make a donation to help us address bullying & support more LGBTQ youth in Napa & Sonoma counties!

Octubre es el mes de prevención del acoso y el jueves 18 de octubre es el #DíaDeEspíritu (#SpiritDay), una tradición que comenzó en octubre del 2011 cuando fallecieron varios jóvenes LGBTQ debido al acoso y al suicidio. Para proclamar visiblemente a nuestras/os jóvenes LGBTQ que son amadas/os y apoyadas/os por una comunidad a quien si le importan, nos vestimos de morado (el color de Espíritu de la bandera del arco iris) y, cada año desde 2012, ¡hemos creado una gran y hermosa colección de fotos comunitarias!

Aquí hay 3 formas en que Ud. puede participar este año para mostrar su apoyo a jóvenes LGBTQ:

  1. “¡Vístase de morado” para #SpiritDay, jueves 18 de octubre!
  2. ¡Venga a nuestras fiestas moradas al estilo de casa abierta en Napa o Santa Rosa el día 18 de octubre!
  3. ¡Haga una donación para ayudarnos a enfrentar el acoso escolar y apoyar a más jóvenes LGBTQ en los condados de Napa y Sonoma!
