White Balloon Day is on Tuesday 8th September. White Balloon Day is a national event: it is a day we all get to be involved in protecting children against sexual assault. Currently one in five children are sexually assaulted before their 18th birthday BUT – we can change this. Get involved in White Balloon Day and send all children and survivors everywhere a message of support, belief and respect.
- Tie a white balloon to your letterbox, pot plant at work, counter or street sign
- Hold a Wear White Day at your office or workplace or perhaps hold a White Tea
- Visit your local Terry White Pharmacy and buy one our really lovely ‘enviro shopping bags for just $2. In fact, if you can always use Terry White Pharmacies as a preference that would be great – they are great supporters of child protection
- Visit your local Bendigo Bank and make a donation – every cent helps….
- $10 buys a child a personal safety education program
- $25 buys a crisis counselling/support session
- $50 buys a specialist therapy session
This is your chance to do something to help children AND publicly SAY NO to sexual assault. Channel 9 and the 4BC radio network are supporting this campaign as are Terry White Chemists, Bendigo Bank, Nutrimetics, Rotary and others. Visit the White Balloon Day website and find our more about how you can help. Remember, when it comes to CHILD SEXUAL ASSAULT, IT’S ALL WHITE TO SAY NO!
