What is the
Be a Friend Project?
The BAFP is a "kids for kids" nonprofit supporting student Upstanders (from kindergarten through college) working to end bullying, save lives and build kinder communities using empathy, education and the Arts. Our national Teen Kindness Board helps guide new initiatives and programming. The signature Friend Mail Program delivers surprise peer support with empathetic words and art to survivors of severe bullying to help them stay strong and know they are not alone. School and community-based Kindness Clubs celebrate and cultivate acts of bullying prevention and kindness activism.

Announcing an exciting milestone honoring our 10th anniversary: the launch of our NEW SPECIAL ADVISORS COUNCIL! We proudly welcome six inaugural members, each of whom has generously offered the strength of their name, voice, and professional reputation to amplify our youth-led movement for bullying prevention and kindness activism!
Who We're Writing To…
NOTE: The Friend Mail Program traditionally takes a short break Aug. 15th to Sept. 15th while schools get settled. Our first new recipient of the 2025-2026 school year will be announced mid-September: Skylar (13) from Indiana! 💌 Until then, don’t hold back - Ashley’s mailbox is still wide open for your love and support, even past the due date! 💌✨ We will deliver!
