MEDIA RELEASE

Celebrate Wear It Purple Day by joining our Purple Paddle!

Wear It Purple is a volunteer and youth led not-for-profit organisation which aims to raise awareness and support young LGBTQ+ communities.

Since it was founded in 2010, Wear it Purple has developed into an international movement. The 2024 theme, “Your Passion, Your Pride”, encourages youth and allies to find joy, safety and celebration in all aspects of their identity and lives.

 What started out small has now grown; however the message remains the same. Everybody has the right to be proud of who they are.

 Help us share a message of inclusion and joy this August!

Dragon Boat Clubs across Australia will be holding a range of events over three days from Friday 30 August (Wear it purple day) to Sunday 1 September 2024
