Dear John, I am writing on behalf of the board and staff of No Bully, whose mission of eradicating bullying worldwide by igniting compassion in the next generation has changed hundreds of thousands of student lives for the better. First and foremost, we want to thank you for your belief and investment in our work. Even in the face of a global pandemic, your support fueled our programs' virtualization, as well as the creation of ten webinars and two Solution Coach trainings, ultimately impacting over 8,000 students. No Bully’s work was critically important during 2020 - thank you for making it possible! However, given the impact that COVID has had on schools and districts, on families suffering from illness and loss of income, and on the understandable shift in the focus of funders to meet immediate needs such as food and shelter, No Bully is no longer able to fund its programs under its current structure. Therefore, it is with great sadness that we are winding down and discontinuing operations. The board is working to ensure that the No Bully program content developed over the past decade will continue to help young people under a new structure. Watch for future communications about No Bully programs. For all you have done to ignite compassion in our youth, empower young voices for good, and develop a future generation appreciative of each individual’s contribution to the whole, thank you! With best wishes from all of us at No Bully, | |
