For Bullying Awareness Week,
#RisingYouth grantee Shianne
Adams decided on the theme of
Choose Kind and used her grant
money to support activities and
promote events at her school
all throughout the week. Her
school started out the week by
placing a positive Post-It note
on every locker. They also wrote
motivational sayings on all the
bathroom mirrors to promote
positivity. Throughout the entire
week, students nominated
peers or teachers for kind acts
while many gathered to take
a pledge against bullying.
Shianne also invited a guest
speaker to her school to share
a presentation on the different
types of bullying and inspire all
the students to stand up against
such behavior. It was a jam-
packed week of fighting against
bullying and choosing kind.
" Watching the kind acts and
people being recognized
for their kindness was
the greatest success
of this project!"
