Be Someone

Hello everyone,

                          On July 21, National Be Someone Day challenges each of us to take ten seconds to make a difference in the life of a child.

What can be done in ten seconds? We can order a cup of coffee or water a plant. We can hear or tell a bad joke. In ten seconds, we can change our minds and after doing so say a prayer of thanks. When we walk into a room, in that time, we can register the pain in someone’s eyes and begin to provide comfort. We can praise and honor someone who deserves it.

We can also commit to report child abuse. On National Be Someone Day, take the pledge to be the person to make a difference in a child’s life. Most importantly, be someone prepared to report when a child trusts you enough to tell you they’ve been hurt.

HOW TO OBSERVE #BeSomeoneDay

Be someone who changes a child’s life for the good. Take the pledge on July 21st to report child abuse.
