Cool To Be Kind Campaign
Act Against Bullying’s major anti-bullying campaign Cool To Be Kind started as a round of school talks on bullying. The motto was ‘Don’t be Rude, Don’t Exclude, Don’t Push In, Don’t Hurt To Win, It’s Cool to be Kind’. The campaign has been running since 2001 but, since 2005, Cool to be Kind Day has been celebrated in November during Anti-Bullying Week. To participate in this annual event, schools can download resources - such as assembly notices, AAB kindness certificates for presentations to reward anti-bullying behaviour and posters - from the Act Against Bullying website.

Famous quotes containing the words cool, kind and/or campaign:
“Hardly had the glow been kindled by some good deed on your part or by some little triumph over your rivals or by a word of praise from your parents or mentors when it would begin to cool and fade leaving you in a very short time as chill and dim as before.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“Fortunately, the time has long passed when people liked to regard the United States as some kind of melting pot, taking men and women from every part of the world and converting them into standardized, homogenized Americans. We are, I think, much more mature and wise today. Just as we welcome a world of diversity, so we glory in an America of diversity—an America all the richer for the many different and distinctive strands of which it is woven.”
—Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
“Dianne’s not one of the boys, but she’s not one of the girls, either.”
—Marcia Smolens, U.S. political campaign aide. As quoted in Dianne Feinstein, ch. 15, by Jerry Roberts (1994)
