“Youth for me represent a kinder and braver world because their stories have the ability to change things. It takes just one story to inspire someone to be nicer in class. It takes just one story to inspire someone who wants to give up. It takes just one story to change somebody’s life,” Lady Gaga said in a videotaped greeting at the award ceremony in New York on May 21. The Foundation shares ADL’s mission of combating bullying among young people.
During the past eight years, ADL’s Mountain States Region has reached hundreds of thousands of students through its No Place for Hate® Initiative. We are proud to continue to partner with schools and empower students to create school environments in which all students, families and staff can be safe and can thrive. Our school partners, generous sponsors – The Gay and Lesbian Fund for Colorado and The David and Laura Merage Foundation – and many supporters listed on our website continue to believe that a positive school culture and climate makes a difference in the lives of students, families, educators and communities, providing students with a voice to promote respect for individual and group differences while challenging prejudice and bigotry.
