Defeat The Label, the
international anti bullying non-profit, announced their first annual Run4Change 5k and
Fun Run to benefit their 2013 ING New York Marathon Run4Change Team.
“Thirteen million
children are bullied in school each year, this is a problem that is affecting
the lives of all of our youth and it is time to take a stand.” Stated Jeff
Sakwa, President of Defeat the Label “Our hope is that Defeat the Label is
the key organization when it comes to the anti-bullying movement, providing
supports, programming and classroom toolkits to offer students an opportunity
to take a stand against bullying in their own schools.”
The event will take place on Sunday, October
6, 2013 at Seaholm High School in Birmingham, Michigan. Registration for the event is available at www.dtl5k.com.
