#HBURGWearsRed
Tomorrow – Wednesday, April 15 – is the city-wide effort for all to share their displays of red – helping to paint the city virtually.
All can join the #HBURGWearsRed movement by grabbing leftover Christmas ribbons and bows – or a simple red shirt – and share in the unified display of hope, faith and determination that Hattiesburg will get through this public health crisis.
To share displays of red, residents are asked to tag all social posts with #HBURGWearsRed.
