April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month - Join us in Denim Day

Take a stand against rape by joining PAVE in wearing denim on Wednesday, April 27th 2011 to work for a dollar donation to PAVE. National denim day is observed due to the following court case.


In 1992, an 18 year old in Italy was picked up by her driving instructor to begin a driving lesson. Soon after, the driving instructor raped her on the side of the road. She pressed charges and won her case. The instructor appealed, and the case went to the Italian High Court. In 1999, the court overturned the conviction with the member of the High Court declaring that since the victim wore tight jeans, the instructor could not have removed them himself, therefore the victim must have willingly participated.


Women of the Italian legislature protested the decision by wearing jeans. As the news spread, so did the protest. In 1999, the state of California established the first Denim Day in the United States. Please join us in support of Denim Day by wearing your denim and together we can take a stand against all sexual violence.


Please call PAVE at 920-887-3810 for more details about how to bring denim day to your workplace. Currently, Summit Credit Union in Beaver Dam is planning to participate with us.
