PLEDGE TO WEAR BLUE on April 4th to show your commitment to keep kids safe! April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month; in support, S.A.F.E. invites you to WEAR BLUE on Monday, April 4th, 2016! Sigma Beta Sigma at Young Harris College will host an awareness table to make a visible commitment to preventing child abuse and supporting strong families and healthy children. One person can make a difference, and it can start with you! If your organization or business would like to join with S.A.F.E. to raise awareness of child abuse prevention, please contact Natasha Kreisle at nkreisle@safeservices.org or 706-379-1901 On April 4th, WEAR BLUE anywhere - to work, to school, a community event, the gym, and even at home. Invite your friends, family, students, co-workers or even your entire office to WEAR BLUE too! It doesn?t matter if its a blue shirt or blue suede shoes, the unified, community-wide act of wearing blue will help raise awareness that child abuse is preventable. HOW DO I PARTICIPATE? Wear Blue on April 4th! Share your commitment with family, friends and co-workers and encourage them to WEAR BLUE too! Consider taking donations at your workplace to support S.A.F.E.'s mission to serve victims of child abuse. Take a picture of yourself, your group, class, or company wearing blue and share it on our Facebook page (and your page as well), and email it to nkreisle@safeservices.org WHY BLUE? In the spring of 1989, a grandmother from Virginia began the blue ribbon campaign as a tribute to her grandson, a three-year old who died at the hands of his mother's abusive boyfriend. Since that time, concerned citizens all over the country have worn blue as a symbol of the need to prevent child abuse and neglect.
