At some point in your life, you’ve most probably encountered someone who has a birthmark, and odds are about even that you yourself have one. Vascular Birthmark Day is a day of support, awareness, and recognition for those who have birthmarks and is there to help people understand those who have them. It’s surprising that bullying for birthmarks is such a common concern, especially given that nearly half of all people have them! The best way to celebrate Vascular Birthmark Day is to take pride in your birthmark, maybe even share a photo of it on social media, declaring that you are not ashamed. If you know someone who has a birthmark and is being bullied for it, stand up for them and make sure you work to help prevent bullying in your community.
