EVERY VOICE MATTERS.

Silence Isolates.

Bullying and mental health struggles continue to weigh heavily on students—but one act of compassion can begin to break the silence.

Every time Kirk visits a school, he meets students who finally feel seen, heard, and valued. Through these moments, Stand for the Silent helps young people find strength in their voices and hope in each other.

Your donation makes that possible—helping us reach the next student who needs to hear, “You are somebody.”

Kirk, I go to middle school, and I just wanted to say that you changed my world forever. You are inspirational. I have been bullied, and I have been a bully. If I could, I would go back and change any time that I have been a bully to anyone. I will now stand for the silent. You are my hero. God bless.

—Middle School Student

How Your Donation Makes a Difference

Every day, students across the country are struggling in silence—afraid, unseen, and unsure who to turn to.

Your gift helps us break that silence.

It brings Stand for the Silent programs to schools that otherwise couldn’t afford them—where students hear, often for the first time, that they are valued and that their voices matter.

Your support gives them the courage to speak up, ask for help, and begin to heal.

Together, we can reach more classrooms, more communities, and more students before silence turns into something irreversible.

Your visit to my school changed my life. I am now trying to start my own chapter in our school. As a victim of being bullied, I know the effects and how it feels. It’s not okay. I want to stop bullying in my school, community, and many other places. I wanted to thank y’all for the inspiration y’all gave me when y’all came to my school.

I have noticed an immediate change in our school thanks to the Stand For the Silent presentation. Kids are laughing more and I have less children coming to me saying someone is bullying them Definitely changed the vibe of the whole school! I will be using this presentation every year!

Your presentation was amazing. We are still talking about it and we will remember it, hopefully forever. You are a great presenter and clearly a genuine person. Maybe you could return in a few years??? Btw, 3 students spoke with our social worker yesterday in the afternoon about having suicidal thoughts.

We love you Kirk and we love you TY 😍
