It’s Rebecca Schofield Day!

By Tara Clow Sep 15, 2023 | 12:13 PM

Don’t forget to be kind to one another today because Becca told me to.

Rebecca Schofield is recognized on the third Friday of September each year.

In 2017, a motion was passed in the Legislature for it to officially be known as Rebecca Schofield Day.

The Riverview teen spread her love by encouraging everyone to do acts of kindness for each other while using the #BeccaToldMeTo document them.

It spread wildly, with social media posts from around the world.

Becca passed away in 2018 after a courageous battle with brain cancer.

The 3rd annual #BeccaToldMeTo motorcycle ride was scheduled for September 16th but was rescheduled to September 23rd due to Hurricane Lee.
