Social media campaign to take place on
February 13
VALCOURT, QC, Feb. 7, 2025
/PRNewswire/ - BRP Inc. (TSX: DOO) (NASDAQ: DOOO) invites
everyone to take a stand against bullying with the third edition of
its Yellow Day on February 13,
2025. This annual event, part of BRP's Ride Out Intimidation
program, encourages people from around the world to wear yellow and
raise awareness for this important cause. By wearing yellow and
sharing our participation on social media, we create a vibrant show
of solidarity that sparks conversations and raises awareness
against all forms of bullying — whether in schools, the workplace,
or any other setting.
To amplify this initiative, BRP will make a donation to six
anti-bullying organizations worldwide, for every public social post
shared on that day. Last year alone, the BRP community raised CAD
$100,000 as part of Yellow Day, which
was donated to support organizations dedicated to fighting bullying
in their communities.
"Fighting intimidation is a universal cause that unites us all.
Whether we've witnessed, experienced, or even maybe contributed to
it one way or another, bullying leaves a lasting impact, " said
Elise Auvachez-Millot, Vice-President, Public Affairs, Government
Relations and CSR at BRP. "Worldwide, one in three children is
bullied at school, and nearly half of working professionals report
experiencing bullying in their workplace. Through Yellow Day, we
aim to shine a light on the importance of taking collective action
to build a world where everyone feels safe and respected."
Join BRP this February 13th in
wearing yellow to make a difference and help continue the fight
against bullying. Show your support by posting a photo on LinkedIn,
Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag
#RideOutIntimidation.
