“If they don't like you for being yourself, Be yourself even more.” Taylor Swift
In honor of October’s National Bullying Prevention Month, STOMP Out Bullying™, the leading national nonprofit dedicated to changing the culture for all students, calls on the nation to join them in their mission by raising awareness to develop a society focused on kindness and inclusivity.
“We have always been an organization dedicated to spreading kindness and preventing bullying and cyberbullying. However, this year, we were driven more than ever to help communities, youth, students and society realize that what we really need is to change the culture from one of cruelty to one of civility,” said Ross Ellis, CEO and Founder of STOMP Out Bullying™. “This October, we mark 14 years as an organization. I never want to see another child in pain,” added Ms. Ellis. “And I never want to hear the words, ‘I want to die.’”
The first Monday in October is designated as World Day of Bullying Prevention™ by the organization and kicks off National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month. Students, organizations, communities, and individuals go BLUE together with a massive worldwide statement against bullying with millions of people participating across the globe.
STOMP Out Bullying is thrilled to announce the following buildings across the U.S. and in Canada who will light blue in honor of World Day of Bullying Prevention which kicks off National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month.
We are honored to have these buildings join us in our worldwide effort to STOMP Out Bullying!
