  World Bullying Prevention Month #BeKind #BlueUp #BlueShirtDay The campaign is held during the month of October and unites communities around the world to educate and raise awareness of bullying prevention.  Every October, schools and organizations across the globe observe World Bullying Prevention Month. The goal: encourage schools, communities and organizations to work together to stop bullying and cyberbullying and put an end to hatred and racism by increasing awareness of the prevalence and impact of all forms of bullying on all children of all ages. Kindness is the quality or state of being kind. It is so important. The last few years we have endured such hate. We must get back to kindness. Give KINDNESS because you can. Do not judge. Learn other cultures because if you don’t you will never know what wonderful people can be in your life. Be RESPECTFUL to all people. Why? Because the world needs more people who are. And there is no one better to do this than ALL OF US!!
