Kindness comes full circle: Our 9th annual Pink Shirt Day celebration
The VPFO Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee presents our 9th annual Pink Shirt Day on Wednesday, February 25, 2026.
Come together with your VPFO colleagues to celebrate kindness, inclusion, and collective strength—either virtually via livestream or in person at the Alumni Centre’s Jack Poole Hall at 10:30 a.m. Evening, night, and weekend teams will also have activities during their shifts.
This year’s theme, “Kindness Comes Full Circle,” reminds us that even the smallest acts of care can create meaningful ripple effects across our teams and community. Kindness Comes Full Circle highlights how small, everyday acts of kindness create positive ripple effects—for individuals, teams, and our broader community. The theme aligns strongly with the spirit of Pink Shirt Day and provides a flexible, inclusive foundation for both in-person and virtual events.
Wednesday, February 25:
- Day: 10:30-11:30 am | Jack Poole Hall, Alumni Centre
- Evening: 7:00-8:00 pm | Centre for Interactive Research on Sustainability (CIRS), Room 1250

Saturday, February 28:
