"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies by the silence of our friends."

-  Martin Luther King, Jr.

Humanity Rising ( humanityrising.org) and Stand for the Silent (standforthesilent.org) have teamed up to empower students to help put an end to bullying through kindness and respect.

YOUR contribution will help Humanity Rising bring Kirk Smalley's Anti-Bullying assembly to more youth and support a student-led movement to end bullying in our world. Humanity Rising also awards scholarships to students who are driving change in their communities.

About Stand for the Silent

Stand for the Silent is one of the leading and most effective Anti-Bullying organizations in the country. In 2010, Kirk and Laura Smalley lost their 11-year old son Ty to suicide. Since that time, Kirk has shared his story with over 1.5 million students across the country in a very moving and powerful Stand for the Silent Anti-Bullying assembly. Stand for the Silent assemblies are life-changing, and even life-saving, for many.

• 70.6% of students say they witness or experience bullying on a weekly basis

• 1 in 3 youth are cyberbullied; cyberbullying has increased 70% during the pandemic
