The national Moose Hide Campaign Day takes place on Thursday, May 12. This day is dedicated to the grassroots movement of Indigenous and non-Indigenous men and boys standing up against violence toward women and children. Over the years, it has grown into a national campaign to engage all Canadians, with more than 2,000 participating communities and organizations across the country.
This year, Humber has become an Ambassador Campus to further spread the word about this critical initiative across our community. To commemorate the day, IE&E is providing official moose hide pins for Humber community members to pin on their clothing to show their support.
You can pick up pins on-campus on the following days:
- Tuesday, May 10 at 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. – Lakeshore Campus, Welcome Centre 301
- Wednesday, May 11 at 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. – North Campus, LRC 2136
On Thursday, May 12, we encourage you to post an image of yourself wearing the pin on social media and include a pledge of how you will take a stand against gender-based violence. If you made a campaign pledge last year, please include what you did over the past year to fulfill your pledge. Ensure to include the #MooseHideCampaignDay, @humberindigenous, and @humbercollege in your post/message.
