I am positively pink at all the attention the article in People Magazine has received, and would like to thank everyone that has taken the time to write an email of support. It hardly seems fair to be singled out for "hero" status, when there are so many friends, colleagues, and supporters that have held me up every step of the way. Even more amazing are the people that never knew Jeff, but reached out to comfort those of us who have mourned him these past three years. You are the true heroes, and I thank God for you every day.
For those of you that have come to this site because you were moved by our story and wondered what you can do to help support the cause of eliminating bullying from the daily life of a child, please consider making a donation to our Pay Pal account. Your gift is not sent to some corporation where 90% of it goes to cover the cost of professional fundraisers. It goes to pay for gas, hotels, food, or airfare to send one more kid to Congress to explain what school is like when the "terrorist" sits in the desk behind yours, eats in the same lunchroom, and pursues you even into the virtual world of technology. We will never eliminate weapons in school until we eliminate the reasons why children feel they will make it safely through the day without them! Be part of the solution...
Hugs,
Debbie
