"Local representative of the Pink Hijab movement, Fatima Fakier Deria said the day has been observed in North America, Europe and the Middle East. South Africa celebrated the day for the first time last year. 'Botswana will participate for the first time this year and we have already started preparing for it by going to schools like Westwood International and Al Nur. We gave presentations to sensitise the students about breast cancer,' she said.The website, www.pinkhijabday.net says that Pink Hijab Day is intended to shatter stereotypes about Muslim women, as well as to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research.
'All over the world, Muslims participated by wearing pink hijabs, pink ribbons, and donating to breast cancer foundations,' the website says."
