UPDATE: Bullied NY Bus Monitor Teaches Kindness

(Thanks to BlueToTheBone...:hug



After tremendous media attention following a school bus bullying episode seen around the world a year ago, former bus monitor Karen Klein says her daily life really hasn’t changed all that much. She’s kept everything pretty much the same, according to Karen and her daughter via several interviews.

She has, however, been able to retire, something the 69-year-old widow couldn’t imagine before.

All thanks to the kindness of strangers.

Mission of The Foundation

The goal of the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation is to help teach kids and teens about being kind, friendly, and playing nicely with others.

One of the most important skills young children should learn before they attend school is the ability to interact with their peers in a friendly and positive manner.

In an effort to reinforce this message, the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation will help introduce educational content on the subject of anti-bullying into schools across the nation.

The Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation will focus on four main initiatives:

· Develop new media assets that will serve the cause of anti-bullying
· Create educational curriculum that will teach about Bullying and what each of us can do to stop it
· Support great organizations that are bringing awareness to the anti-bullying movement
· Provide Funds for anti-bullying counseling in schools across the country and around the world

The Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation is not about reinventing the wheel. We are raising this money to support great organizations that are already fighting the fight against bullying.

In addition, along with Chris Surrey and Project54Tour, we will develop some new material and create new events that will take the anti-bullying movement further than ever. All the money that is raised through the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation will support projects that everyone can follow. Any money that is granted from the foundation will be given to causes that support our mission.
