You
may recall that over $700,000 flooded into an internet account set up
as a "vacation fund" for New York bus monitor Karen Klein after she was
seen being brutally bullied by students on a viral cell video. This is
what she's doing with
some of the money:
My
story inspired more than 32,000 people to engage in their own act of
love by donating to a fundraising campaign created by Max for my
support. As you probably know, together we raised a lot more money than
what I needed to go on vacation. 32,000 people around the world raised
$703,873 for my behalf. It has changed my life forever. Now, I am not
only going on vacation, but I am able to retire and take care of my
family. You have all inspired me by your acts of love. But now it is
time for me to give back and to turn your single act of kindness into my
own personal movement to stop bullying in America. The Karen Klein
Anti-Bullying Foundation, which I am seeding with $100,000, will be the
gathering point for millions of people to support the anti-bullying
movement. Together, we will change the world.
