What is the
Be a Friend Project?

The BAFP is a "kids for kids" nonprofit supporting student Upstanders (from kindergarten through college) working to end bullying, save lives and build kinder communities using empathy, education and the Arts. Our national Teen Kindness Board helps guide new initiatives and programming. The signature Friend Mail Program delivers surprise peer support with empathetic words and art to survivors of severe bullying to help them stay strong and know they are not alone. School and community-based Kindness Clubs celebrate and cultivate acts of bullying prevention and kindness activism.
