DECEMBER 6: PUBLIC AWARENESS DAY
SUPPORT THE PURPLE RIBBON CAMPAIGN
In 1990, the Women's Action Coalition of Nova Scotia launched a Purple Ribbon Campaign to pay tribute to the fourteen women murdered December 6, 1989 in Montreal to raise public awareness on violence against women, as well as to collect donations to benefit women who have been victims of violence. This year, the December 6 Committees will be continuing this initiative. Purple ribbon displays will be set up in a variety of locations across the province. Please give generously, and wear a purple ribbon to commemorate the victims of violence in your community. All proceeds will go to Transition Houses for Abused Women and Their Children in Nova Scotia. Phone the Transition House Association of Nova Scotia for more information at (902) 429-7287.
