John Weber asked me if I could please wear something purple on Wednesday. He saw somewhere that it was purple day and he thought it would be a good idea if we show our support.
Well, I always enjoy getting involved in these promotions and I had my own idea of what cause we would be supporting this week, but I thought I would google it just to make sure. Guess what I found out?
Purple is the colour of choice for a number of worthwhile causes. I know what I associate the colour with, but it was interesting to see all the different organizations that take ownership of this beautiful colour. Did you know that PURPLE is used to bring awareness to Bullying, Domestic Violence, Cystic Fibrosis, Gay & Lesbian support, Lupus, Alzheimer’s, eating disorders, suicide prevention and more?
This year, on Wednesday March 26th, John and I will be wearing purple for Epilepsy. I’ll be tweeting it, too, so join me at #PURPLEDAY2014. We’d love to see some selfies, so take a picture of yourself in all your purple glory and tag us on Facebook! facebook.com/john.weber.9275 or facebook.com/christie.c.bond.
