THE GUARDIAN ANGELS Annual Gala Dinner Dance, “Keeping
it Safe”:
Each day, hundreds of thousands of kids are afraid to go
to school. What can we do to ensure that our schools and
our neighborhoods are safe places for kids? What can we
do, as a community, to help keep kids out of trouble? A
major way to protect kids from rising numbers of threats
is through education, with initiatives focused on
character development, anti-bullying, gang resistance,
and how to protect against Internet threats. Bullying,
gangs, cyberbullying and other Internet threats are
serious problems attracting national attention from the
media, law enforcement, government, businesses, schools
and parents (”Generation GAP? Online Gap Widens Divide
Between Parents & Children,” Science Daily, 02/05/08,
“New effort to protect kids online,” CNNMondey.com,
01/14/08, “Online bullying, suicide raise concerns for
parents,” Allentown Morning Call, PA, 01/20/08). YOU can
be part of a community-wide solution to protect our
youth by extending your support to
The Guardian Angels, a non-profit organization
dedicated to: Keeping the environments where kids learn
and grow safe from crime and violence. Offering
educational programs, solutions and alternatives to
schools, parents, and students and empowering students
to become productive, contributing role models. Please
