Generations Against Bullying
16 independent artists are prepared to join forces to positively influence schools and their students as Public Service Ambassadors (PSA). The tour is being developed in conjunction with Generations Against Bullying (www.gabnow.com) and other nonprofit organizations. Touring throughout the U.S. and Canada, each artists will speak and perform at approximately 300 schools. Altogether, the tour will reach 4,000 schools and over 2 million students.
The program’s mission is to promote social acceptance as well as making positive and healthy lifestyle choices. They will share their personal stories as ‘victims’ of bullying, depression, abuse and other negative situations. But rather than dwelling on the negative, they will share how they rose above their situations and are now living their dreams as full-time musicians. Their message to the students will have 3 parts:
- No matter what you’re going through, you’re not alone
- No matter what you’re going through you can get through it if you will just seek help
- It’s unfair to judge other people because you don’t know what they are going through.
The PSA outreach is sponsored by a number of major corporations.
