New York, NY(SharewellNewswire.com) September 20,2012 - Karen Klein, the globally recognized bus monitor from upstate New York has now joined forces with 15 year old Universal Music Group recording artist, BREJÉ and his No Bullies™ program (www.nobullies.me) to help spearhead a national anti-bullying campaign to end cyber bullying. The aim is to collectively help develop resolutions for this global epidemic one state, then one country at a time. The first phase of their newly formed alliance will be a road trip called the Anti-Bully Tour that will canvas America beginning in Myrtle Beach, SC on October 5th, 2012. The tour will visit youth organizations, grade schools, camps & other supportive venues to spread its anti-bully messages. After each event, attendees will be able to meet & greet artists, ask questions related to bullying, and leave with a supportive Dropcard (http://www.dropcards/aab) inspiring them to hold their heads up in the face of adversity.
In conjunction with the tour, an initiative is already in place with the Co-Founder & Strategic Education Director, Olivia Atanasovska of eEvolution Learning & Development Center (
http://www.eeldc.com/) to assist CEC District 8 and 38 New York City elementary and middle schools in implementing their anti-bullying programs in the Bronx.
Karen chose October since it is now widely known as the Pacer Center’s anti-bullying prevention month. The Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation (http://www.karenkleinfoundation.org) has partnered with several major contributors. The first is the world renowned philanthropist and winner of Oprah’s Big Give show, Stephen Paletta, the creator of the GiveBack Foundation. The second is Chris Surrey of the New York based company PaintBox Labs and Project54Tour.
Additionally, Karen has partnered with Miss Teen USA 2012 Logan West to support her anti-bullying initiative, “Bully Proof: Empowering Children Today to Stop Bullying Tomorrow.” The program, which Logan started in Connecticut, aims to empower student leaders to help prevent bullying in their community. Together, they will create educational content on the subject of bullying, provide resources to those organizations in need of help, and assist in developing anti-bullying programs in schools across America. So many around the world have been anxious to find out what the bullied grandmother was going to do with the excess of $700,000 donated on her behalf from over 80 different countries.
“My foundation is not about reinventing the wheel. The intent is to utilize this money to support great organizations that are already fighting the fight against bullying. 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”, explains Karen Klein.
Musical artists Beau Badrick, Adam Web, NATEKid, Marckel Robinson, Still Saffire and Testimony are amongst the myriad of performers across North America that will take part in the traveling PSA/music tours. Already, the anti-bullying video created by BREJÉ called Facebook Lover, has garnered the attention of Top40-Charts.com. The single and music video tells the story of a male teen that has a crush on a classmate and how this fondness is communicated through interaction on Facebook, today’s most used platform for communications for youth across the United States.
“I hope I can show other kids my age and all ages how we have the power to stop bullying now. It starts with our intentions and our words. How we communicate and share online. If we keep our intentions and exchanges about positive messages, then we have won the battle,” says Breje.
A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of the Breje’s “No Bullies” merchandise will be donated to the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation to support the campaign.
Media is handled by Project54Tour, a New York based non-profit organization which specializes in developing strategic PR initiatives, interactive advertising campaigns, and national music tours. Project54Tour uses music, sports, arts, and entertainment as a vehicle to empower youth and help build sustainable communities in the U.S. and abroad.
