WITS Programs Foundation and CKNW Kids’ Fund in honour of Pink Shirt Day

VANCOUVER — On February 27, in 60 participating locations across Canada, Denny’s has once again partnered with the WITS Programs Foundation and CKNW Kids’ Fund in honour of Pink Shirt Day to help support awareness of bullying-prevention resources. This year, the chain’s Pink Shirt Day campaign raised more than $35,000 from the proceeds of its Grand Slam breakfasts.

“We’ve always been active members of the communities we serve. For the fifth year in a row, we’re thrilled to partner with the WITS Foundation and CKNW Kids’ Fund for our Pink Shirt Day fundraiser, which supports bullying prevention. We’re so thankful to our team members and guests for participating in these meaningful events over the years,” says Deborah Gagnon, president & Chief Operating Officer of Denny’s of Canada & Bar One.

“Denny’s support helps us empower thousands of Canadian kids via the WITS Programs and our Pink Shirt Day Canada broadcast,” says Andy Telfer, executive director of the WITS Programs Foundation. “With help from Denny’s and the Northland group, children learn to be safe using the WITS strategies, and youth learn to make their communities more inclusive and kinder year-round through our Pink Shirt Project program.”
