Order your $10 shirt to be shipped to you here!
Charcoal/Dark Grey short sleeve unisex shirt with Take Back the Virtual Night logo on the front and “We may not be marching, but we will never be silenced” on the back with Hope Harbor’s and sponsors’ logos.
Hope Harbor has been hosting the annual march and rally, Take Back the Night, since the 90s. To prevent the spread of the coronavirus, we had to cancel Take Back the Night and all other in-person events for Sexual Assault Prevention Month. We know how important this event is to our community and it is really important to us to still be present during times of social distancing. Our TBTN shirts have been a staple to our event and we couldn’t skip out this year! We are offering our shirts online and will be shipping them to you. Make sure you check the correct size and include your address.This is why we are charging $10 for the shirts this year; to cover the cost of shipping and plus a couple dollars to offset the money we won’t be receiving due to the cancellation of the other Sexual Assault Prevention Month events. We will not be making a profit off the shirts as our sponsors stayed with us–despite the event cancellations–to cover the costs. Huge shout out to our t-shirt sponsors WNKY, Med Center Health (extra attention to them during this time!), Atmos Energy, and WKU Gender and Women’s Studies. Additional support for this month came from Logan Aluminum, Family Works, and WKU English Department. Our social media pages (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) are posting ways you can stay involved while avoiding crowds.
Ordering will close on April 10 at 8am. You should receive your shirt by April 23-24. Once you have your shirt, please take a photo and share on social media! Tag us along with #SAPM2020 #VirtualTBTN #ThisIsForAllofUs

What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Here’s some link
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
