Ty was small for his age and was called hurtful names like "shrimp" or "tiny Tim" while being shoved into a locker by bullies. Even though Ty loved to learn. Ty was called ruthless names, physically tortured, and was outcast by his peers. The sad fact is that Ty is just 1 in 13 million kids that will be bullied this year in the U.S. Often times, the result of being bullied is dropping out of school, depression, anxiety disorder, and suicidal thoughts. Words and physical abuse hurt Ty so deep, he took his own life at age 11.
This week, we are helping put an end to bullying. We are partnering with Stand For The Silent to educate and rally students to run anti-bullying initiatives. These students will no longer stand for their peers to suffer at the hands of a bully by joining together in a school wide pledge against bullying behavior. Every $2,000 we raise, we fund a school wide crusade against bullying.
