Anti-Bullying

Another one of the many volunteer organizations that I am involved with is the anti-bully program on campus. I recently became involved with this program last winter.

Unlike many of the others in the group, I only got to present at a couple of schools and teaching children about anti-bullying. I have given presentations from different age groups ranging from kindergarteners all the way up to fifth graders.

I am really looking forward to presenting at other schools this year and expanding our bullying group.

This video below is a good way to insight that bullying can be stopped and it does not take a hero to end bullying. All it needs is for another person to take a stand against bullying.
